ABOUT THIS JEWELRY

Uncommon combinations--with exquisite details--are always a delight. This singular suite of Victorian jewels features an intriguing pendant necklace (formerly a brooch) with a slightly concave chalcedony disk set in a beveled bezel decorated with fine twisted gold. The glowing translucency of the creamy-hued stone is punctuated, in striking contrast, by a lovely 'flower' with petals of glimmering purplish-red garnets, each set in a scallop-edged bezel, while a single natural pearl shimmers at its center. So pretty it bears repeating, hence, the complementing earrings. Total garnet weight, 3.00 carats. Hand fabricated in 14K gold, circa 1880. New chain measures 18 inches.

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.
