INQUIRE ABOUT THIS ITEM

ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

A high-domed (a.k.a. sugarloaf) 4.60 carat cabochon sapphire casts a gorgeous royal cobalt blue glow as it suspends from a stylized heart-shaped centerpiece surmounted by a bright-white and sparkling bezel-set old mine-cut diamond, all of which are supported on each side by diamond-set tulips and leaves. Formerly a brooch, this enchanting Belle Époque jewel dates back to the first or second decade of twentieth-century France. Total diamond weight, .90 carat. Hand fabricated in platinum, the centerpiece measures 2 inches wide, the new chain measures 16 inches. Accompanied by a gemological report from Stone Group Laboratories stating: Natural, No Indications of Thermal Enhancement, *Pailin, Cambodia origin. *In the world of sapphires, those closest in color to Kashmir (the rarest and most coveted) and Burmese (close runner-up) originate from Pailin, Cambodia.

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.
