ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

Upon being presented with a truly remarkable collection of rare and radiant gemstones: 7 old mine Colombian Muzo emeralds, the renowned American jeweler, J.E. Caldwell, created this thoroughly unique art piece of color and sparkle. (The GIA gemological report for emeralds states: Five (5) emeralds have no indication of treatment. Two (2) emeralds are minor clarity enhanced (F1). Colombia, origin.) The ultra-vibrant, richly saturated, crystalline bluish-green gems dangle below and between a glorious composition of European-cut, Swiss-cut and single-cut diamonds. At each end, a diamond-frosted Edwardian bow connects to a chain composed of small ribbed cylinders alternating in platinum and 14K gold (to match the diamond and emerald settings) and connected by an engraved clasp set with five twinkling diamonds. As famed jeweler Harry Winston said, "People will stare. Make it worth their while." This fabulous necklace will not disappoint. Total emerald weight - 10.00 carats; total diamond weight - 5.00 carats. Hand fabricated in platinum (emerald mountings are 18K yellow gold), circa early-20th century. Signed and numbered J.E.C. Co. It measures 15 1/2 inches.

About Edwardian Jewelry

Edwardians took the dark beauty of Victorian jewelry and dyed it platinum blonde. Light and airy filigree, worked with intricate millegrain and detailed designs in that durable metal, was liberally set with the “white” stones—pearls and diamonds chief among them. The Victorians’ sense of whimsy and beloved yellow gold didn’t disappear completely, though, even as the Edwardian era made way for the further-streamlined Art Deco.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
