ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

Some will be wearing diamonds, some pearls. You can wear a stunning combination of both the next time you step out for any glamorous affair. Striking and utterly distinctive in design, this exquisite Edwardian necklace presents an open, teardrop shape of bezel-set single-cut diamonds surrounding a lustrous, dangling pearl, all of which suspends from a larger diamond-set drop. This artful combination joins to a crescent of gleaming graduated pearls--accentuated on each end with European-cut diamonds-- "floating" in a curved diamond-encrusted frame (this element once could be worn as a brooch; the original pin stem has been removed and is included with the necklace). Get ready to stand out from the crowd. Total diamond weight, 2.58 carats. Hand fabricated in platinum, chain measures 15 inches (17 1/2 including pendant). Total diamond weight, 2.58 carats. Hand fabricated in platinum, it measures 17 1/2 inches (including the pendant width).

About Edwardian Jewelry

Edwardians took the dark beauty of Victorian jewelry and dyed it platinum blonde. Light and airy filigree, worked with intricate millegrain and detailed designs in that durable metal, was liberally set with the “white” stones—pearls and diamonds chief among them. The Victorians’ sense of whimsy and beloved yellow gold didn’t disappear completely, though, even as the Edwardian era made way for the further-streamlined Art Deco.

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.
