Exclusive Handmade Smoky Quartz Necklace with Aquamarine and Diamond Pendant – 18 kt and 14 kt Gold – Made in Italy Exclusive handcrafted necklace individually created in Torre del Greco (Naples, Italy) by Perna Laboratorio Orafo, an artisan goldsmith workshop operating in one of the most historically significant centres of Italian jewellery craftsmanship. This necklace has been created as a unique artisanal piece and is not part of a serial or mass-produced collection, reflecting the workshop’s focus on craftsmanship, material quality and refined proportions. The necklace is composed of natural smoky quartz beads, round shape, with a diameter of approximately 4.5 mm, carefully selected for chromatic harmony, translucency and natural depth. Natural internal inclusions typical of quartz are visible and confirm the authenticity and natural origin of the material. Enhancing the composition are 12 spherical spacer beads in 18 kt yellow gold, each measuring approximately 1.8 mm in diameter, precisely positioned along the strand to create rhythm, brightness and refined visual balance. The necklace is finished with a solid 18 kt yellow gold clasp, bearing a 750/1000 hallmark clearly visible in the photographs. All 18 kt gold components have been professionally tested by a qualified expert, confirming authenticity and declared fineness. The total weight of the 18 kt gold elements is approximately 1.50 grams. The necklace is entirely handmade, new and never worn, and conceived as a distinctive jewel rather than an industrially produced item. At the centre of the necklace is an elegant pendant featuring a mounting crafted in 14 kt yellow gold, with 585/1000 hallmark visible in the photographs and professionally tested. The approximate weight of the 14 kt gold pendant mounting is 1.00 gram. The pendant is set with a natural aquamarine, brilliant cut, weighing approximately 0.50 carats, distinguished by its fresh and luminous blue tone. Surrounding the aquamarine is a refined halo of 12 natural brilliant-cut diamonds, each weighing approximately 0.02 carats, for a total diamond weight of approximately 0.24 carats. The diamonds are well matched and precisely set, offering excellent brilliance and an elegant, harmonious appearance. The pendant mounting features an open-back construction, allowing light to interact naturally with the gemstones and highlighting the artisanal workmanship visible in the photographs.
