ABOUT THIS JEWELRY

A captivating quartet of ultra *gemmy old mine Colombian emeralds (minor clarity enhancement per GIA), together weighing 3.00 carats, radiate with a glorious vibrant green glow from the four corners of this extraordinary pendant/brooch hand fabricated in rich 18 karat yellow gold - circa turn-of-the-last-century. A central ultra lustrous natural saltwater pearl (per GIA) and a half dozen bright white old mine-cut diamonds add the finishing flourish to this unique, magnifique, and collectable antique jewel measuring just over 1 1/2 by 1 1/4 inches. A pair of clever clasp-like mechanisms easily convert the brooch into a pendant, and vice-versa. Total diamond weight, 1.25 carats. 18-inch chain. *Of all gemstones, photos can't begin to capture the depth of color and brightness of emeralds, and the highly magnified photography exaggerates the inclusions; thus you'll be pleasantly surprised when you see it in person!

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.
