11.54ct Amethyst and Pearl, 18ct Yellow Gold Jewellery Suite - Antique French Circa 1880

Description

This stunning, fine and impressive antique brooch and earring suite has been crafted in 18ct yellow gold.

The brooch has a quatrefoil shaped frame, ornamented to the centre with a collet set round cabochon cut amethyst.

The central amethyst is surrounded by eight collet set seed pearls and a black enamel decoration, bordered with sharp engraved details.

The four clefts of the quatrefoil shape display a single seed pearl.

Three spiga chain swags suspend from the lower border of the design, each displaying a single seed pearl and pear cabochon cut amethyst drop.

The brooch secures to the reverse with a hinged pin and clasp, both components struck with the French hallmark for 18ct gold (eagle's head).

Each drop earring has been modelled in the same design as the larger brooch.

The quatrefoil design earrings are each ornamented with a central round cabochon cut amethyst and eight seed pearls, three pear cabochon cut amethyst terminals suspend from the spiga chain drops.

The earrings suspend from an engraved decorated round setting, accented with a central seed pearl, and securing to the up-per border with a French hook fastening.

The French hooks are each struck twice with the French eagle's head hallmark.

This stunning antique jewellery parure is fitted to the original burgundy leatherette, satin and velvet lined push fit presentation case.

The jewellery suite is supplied with an independent diamond grading report card.
