ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

Pretty in pastels. The softest purple and the lightest chiffon green give hue to the lovely stones in this enchanting Georgian pendant. A lavish composition of textured scrollwork glistens at its center with a 3.00-carat emerald-cut amethyst with just a whisper of color, surrounded by glimmering chrysoberyls in bezel and flower-like settings. Georgian pieces are the earliest in our collection, and this treasure, having stood the test of time,  is ready to add a bit of antique allure to your 21st-century style. Total gemstone weight, 6.00 carats. Hand fabricated in 18K yellow gold, it suspends from an 18-inch chain.

Georgian Jewelry

True antiques, Georgian jewels are the earliest pieces in our collection. Lovely foil-backed stones in mixed-metal settings were made to shine by candlelight over dinner and in the drawing rooms of their genteel wearers. Many pieces were made in memory of loved ones or as “memento mori”—literal reminders of mortality that Georgians saw as sophisticated, rather than morbid. While the delicacy of Georgian era settings has been replaced by more modern methods, the cuts and styles have continued to fascinate jewelry lovers.

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.
