This stunning, fine and impressive antique Edwardian pendant with pearls has been crafted in 18ct yellow gold.
The pierced decorated, circular frame displays a feature delicate trefoil floral motif, comprised of collet set heart cut peridots and collet set heart cut amethysts*.
Each motif bears a seed pearl to the centre and along the curvilinear stem, in addition to a central seed-pearl decorated rosette*.
The circular pendant is further ornamented with a linear vertical gold grillwork, allowing the floral central motifs an ethereal floating quality.
The pendant is framed with a seed-pearl decorated border, completing the design.
The antique pendant suspends from a 9ct yellow gold 18.5" chain via a tapering bale to the upper border, embellished with a further three pavé set seed pearls.
This antique gemstone pendant has been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 18 carat gold with a 9 carat gold chain.
The pendant is supplied with an IDGL diamond grading report card.
This Edwardian amethyst, peridot and pearl pendant makes a beautifully romantic gift for someone who appreciates colourful gemstones and the delicate elegance of antique jewellery. The combination of rich purple amethyst, fresh green peridot and lustrous pearls creates a distinctive contrast, enhanced by the graceful craftsmanship associated with the Edwardian era. With amethyst and peridot also serving as the February and August birthstones, the pendant is particularly meaningful for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, Mother's Day or celebrations connecting loved ones with these birth months.
NOTE: * This floral design utilises the iconic Edwardian tricolour combination, a symbolic aesthetic strongly linked to the Votes for Women movement and the suffragette jewellery colour pallet, with green (peridot) for hope, white (pearls) for purity, and violet (amethyst) for Dignity.
