ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

Lovely and luminous, this lacy confection causes a stir at any neckline--whether it be your crisp white shirt or your favorite "I'm a princess" party dress. The focal point of this Victorian openwork wonder is a lavish array of lustrous natural fresh water pearls, in a subtle range of colors (no two are the same in hue or shape), set against an exquisitely crafted backdrop of fanciful scrolls, embellished below with five pearl drops. The alluring assemblage connects to perfectly complementary pearl-set links that culminate in an oval clasp that is its own small work of art. A delicate beauty, so handle with care. Hand fabricated in 9K gold (hence of British origin), it measures 17 inches.

About Victorian Jewelry

The eclectic Victorians didn’t limit themselves when it came to motifs and themes—if it struck their fancy, they turned it into jewelry. Sweet and sentimental with a distinct romantic streak, Victorian gems expanded upon their Georgian predecessors. The array of styles that blossomed (sometimes quite literally) during this era endure to this day.

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.
