ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

A whopping dollop of sunshine--by way of a 95.00 carat citrine--is topped and tipped with shimmering freshwater pearls, in this eye-catching Victorian pendant. The prominent prongs that hold this luscious gem, with their contrasting dark color, add striking dimensional detail around its perimeter and complement the 18-inch darkened silver chain from which the pendant hangs. All eyes on you! Hand fabricated in silver over 14K gold. Condition note: depth of citrine extends beyond the pendant base and citrine facet junctions show wear commensurate with the (late-19th century) age of the piece.

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.
