ABOUT THIS JEWELRY

Wow is the word! Fanciful hand-engraved scrolls create a scalloped frame around an impressive 60.00 carat octagonal amethyst in this arresting, and ever so conspicuous, Victorian convertible brooch/pendant. The fabulous gem, which displays intriguing color zoning ranging from light to medium purple, is highlighted—in striking contrast—by an array of very old and wonderful mine-cut, rose-cut, and table-cut diamonds - all totaling 1.60 carats - in blackened silver settings that enhance their distinctive antique shapes. This bold art piece measures 2 by 1 1/2 inches and suspends from a chunky 18-inch 9K rosy-yellow gold Victorian cable chain. A singular stunner hand fabricated in 18K gold (pin stem is 14K gold).

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.
