ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

How lovely that we carry around a canvas, in the form of our decolletage, that is ever ready to be decorated—preferably by exquisite jewels like this alluring Victorian necklace. Hand fabricated in 15K yellow gold, hence of British origin (circa 1890), it features a scalloped chain accented with natural pearls that transitions to a lavish composition of linked pearl-dotted flowers, each sparkling with a lively old mine-cut diamond. Your canvas is waiting. Total diamond weight, 1.10 carats. The necklace measures 16 inches and rests in a custom-fitted box from J.W. Benson Ltd, Ludgate Hill, London.

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.
