ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

Radiant and romantic, this ravishing jewel will emblaze your neckline with 141 supremely sparkling diamonds. The back of the necklace is composed of a knife wire chain punctuated by stones in round and diamond-shaped settings. The bottom half presents a glittering row of square-set old mine-cut diamonds with a fanciful fringe of diamonds set in an array of shapes--clovers, diamonds, inverted tulips, and round. In a word--spectacular! Circa 1880-1900. Total diamond weight, 7.56 carats. Rendered in silver over 9ct. gold (hence of British origin). Measures 16 1/2 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.
