Necklace in platinum (>850/1000) composed of a chain holding a knotted ribbon motif, surmounted by a flower and holding a foliate motif forming an oval garland, the whole set with slightly graduated old mine cut diamonds. The garland holds as a drop a pear-shaped cabochon emerald, probably Colombian, surmounted by a small diamond.

An emblematic motif of the Belle Époque, this pendant combines the Louis XVI ribbon and the diamond garland, the signature of the garland style fashionable in Paris around the 1910s. The light, openwork mount highlights the diamonds as well as the large emerald cabochon, which brings volume and verticality to the jewel.

The pear-shaped cabochon emerald, measuring 17 x 10 x 10 mm, shows a deep green with fine saturation. The jardin is visible to the naked eye and the emerald shows significant feathering on the back of the cabochon, which is therefore invisible when the jewel is worn. The weight of the emerald is estimated at 8 to 10 carats. The old mine cut diamonds weigh approximately 5 to 6 carats (H to J, VVS to I), with no inclusions visible to the naked eye. The largest stone alone weighs approximately 0.6 carat (I SI1).

Mascaron hallmark for second-hand platinum pieces.

Pendant dimensions: 5.7 x 3.6 cm

Chain length: 41 cm
