ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

The sleek and sexier side of Edwardian. Sans bows, filigree, and fancy flourishes, this lavalière necklace still captivates with its intriguing swag design. Swinging from a bar set with gorgeous violet-blue sapphires and accented on each end with diamond-centered natural pearl 'flowers,' a trio of knife wire swags gleam, sparkle, and shimmer with diamonds, sapphires and pearls, while three pear-shaped sapphire dangles add a bit of extra motion. A unique beauty. Total sapphire weight - 2.60 carats. Hand fabricated in platinum over 18K gold during the first or second decade of the twentieth century,. Platinum chain measures 16 inches, total length of necklace including the width of the pendant is 17 1/4 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.
