Description from the seller
Sautoir necklace, 18k white gold, cultured pearls, white sapphires and chrysoprase, Art Deco, 1940s
Exquisite two-row sautoir necklace of cultured pearls, with a total of 80 pearls, all measuring 8.5 mm in diameter. The clasp is an 18k white gold brooch, with a geometric structure and openwork, set with white brilliant-cut sapphires of varying sizes, including one marquise-cut and a central emerald-cut green gemstone, plus a chrysoprase.
This brooch serves both a structural and ornamental function, becoming the focal point of the piece, something very common in pieces from the 1940s and 1950s. It features a design of intricate bows and leaves radiating from the central stone, a large emerald-cut chrysoprase. Chrysoprase is a gemstone from the chalcedony variety (quartz variation) with an intense green color due to trace nickel in its structure. It has a Mohs hardness of 6–7 and is known as the “stone of hope.” There are contrasts in the clasp and a double safety system. Twelve white brilliant-cut sapphires, each about 0.02 cts, frame this spectacular brooch, lighting it from the outside. Four additional smaller brilliant-cut sapphires are set in, drawing attention to the marquise-cut one. It is kept in its original box.
A timeless, elegant, and sophisticated piece of high jewelry.
