ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

Blue chalcedony can only be described as heavenly, and this Victorian-inspired pendant (circa mid-20th century) is beautifully embellished with the lovely stone. Hexagonal in shape, the front and back sides are centered by violet-blue cabochons, while the perimeter is encircled by smaller stones in shades varying from the lightest blue to lavender. Twisted wire designs and tiny gold beads add detail and texture to this pendant of imaginative design. Hand fabricated in Italy in 18K yellow gold, it suspends from an 18-inch chain.

About Mid-Century Jewelry

Mid-Century jewelers gave the Victorians a run for their money when it came to variety—with the added bonus of big, bold gems in every shape, size, and color. Themes of previous eras were made fabulous enough to match the optimism of the post-war world. Transitional pieces bridged the gap between the first and second half of the 20th century.

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.
