Antique Vintage 1920 Art Deco 14k Gold Platinum 0.26 C Diamond Pendant Necklace
Specializing in Fine Antique Vintage Jewelry & Collectibles. Antique Vintage 1920 Art Deco 14k Gold Platinum 0.26 C Diamond Pendant Necklace! These prices come from GIA recognized Gem Guide , THE wholesale price guide for dealers. These values do not dictate what a piece is worth. This is the price a piece would be worth if stripped down and melted to its bare materials. The Herringbone necklace chain was added on to this pendant at a later date. Due to how the chain was added onto the pendant, the chain has two small weak spots where it starts to curve into the pendant. These weak spots are primarily only visible when holding the chain with your hand, the weak spots are hidden very well when wearing the necklace around your neck. (See example pictures above). This beautiful necklace comes from the Art Deco Era! The Art Deco Era is famous for being the “Gatsby” or “Roaring Twenties” Era. A lot of gorgeous and timeless designs in jewelry came out of this period. The diamonds in this gorgeous pendant are all beautifully Old European Cut and show case lovely facets that reflect light beautifully off of their surface. All of the diamonds in this piece weigh in at a generous. 26 Cts total with the center diamond weighing in at. 18 Cts by itself! The diamonds are very eye clean and are set in Platinum so their sparkle if even more brilliant. The largest diamond has a small scratch on its surface, however it can only be seen with a 10x jewelers loop. The Old European cut was a cutting technique used in the early Victorian Period to the mid Art Deco Period and is one of the first cutting techniques known to man! This involved hand cleaving the gem stone or diamond into a round shape with rough facets and a high rise table. This cut is by far one of the more rare cuts out there due to a lot of these pieces being re cut to the modern round cut over the years. The gold design in this beautiful pendant is hand carved out of stunning 14k yellow gold and features a lovely design! The design includes hand carved details around the diamond setting and a lovely center Platinum diamond setting! The Platinum setting features a similar carved design which matches the gold beautifully while enhancing the diamonds beautiful sparkle. Attacked to the lovely pendant is a modern Herringbone necklace! The Herringbone necklace is also made out of 14k yellow gold and features its signature sleek design that is made out of beautifully attached gold links. All together the necklace measures in at a short choker length of 15.5″ long and features a small 1/2″ drop for the pendant. The necklace is finished off with a lovely push in clasp that works perfectly and includes a safety clasp on top for added protection to your investment.
