Golden Pendant With Aquamarine, Diamonds & Pearl, Great Britain &

Around the middle of the 19th century, goldsmiths were fond of transferring naturalistic motifs from the plant world into jewellery. Surprisingly, one of the most sought-after motifs was the branch! In fact, this initially inconspicuous motif is ideally suited for jewellery design. The natural pattern requires a finely grained structuring of the gold, which was fashionable in the middle of the century anyway and allowed the goldsmith to use all his skill. The present jewel forms a frame of finely grained knots, forged from 18-carat yellow gold. Diamond roses and old mine cut diamonds glisten like dewdrops on these branches. This frame was created in the years around 1850, but it found its way to us without its original center stone. So we considered a new setting for the antique piece. An aquamarine of more than 10 carats was chosen as the center of the piece and a drop pearl is pendulously attached to the composition. Thus, in the spirit of the 19th century's enthusiasm for nature, a piece of jewellery was created that, with its branch design, has a reference to the land and, with its gemstone setting, a reference to the sea: For the aquamarine is named after sea water, from the Latin aqua marina. After careful reworking by our goldsmith, we have had an independent certificate drawn up attesting to the quality of the materials used. It comes with the magnificent pendant.
