This incredible 18k necklace is early Victorian/late Georgian,circa 1840. It is one of the finest and most pristine items I have sold. The necklace and brooch both have the original rich yellow gold patina. This demi-parure has a 16 inch deep purple amethyst necklace with gold collets that are hand crimped around each stone. The natural amethysts are large, graduating from 17mm x 20mm to 9mm x 12mm and are finely faceted. The brooch has an attachment which enables it to become connected to the center of the necklace. The amethysts in the brooch measure 18mm x 15mm to 15mm x 13. The brooch measures a bold 2 1/8 inches across and down. It retains all original mounts and a secure c-clasp. The pinstem has been professionally replaced. The design is ingenious, enabling a multitude of ways to wear it. Worn as a reviere, or with the pendant, or with the brooch and necklace etc.etc. The necklace lays perfectly on the neck, is all original, and in remarkable condition. It comes in its original satin-lined fitted box. |
