Description from the seller
Edwardian / Early Art Deco Platinum Diamond Cross Pendant – Circa 1920
An elegant and highly collectible platinum diamond cross pendant dating to the late Edwardian and early Art Deco period, circa 1915–1925.
This refined jewel is crafted entirely in platinum and features a graceful openwork design set with numerous graduated natural diamonds arranged in a symmetrical geometric pattern. The sophisticated composition, delicate millegrain detailing and finely executed platinum workmanship are characteristic of the finest jewelry produced during the transition between the Edwardian and Art Deco eras.
The cross displays a beautiful progression of diamonds along the vertical and horizontal arms, with larger stones accentuating the center and terminals, creating remarkable brilliance and light reflection from every angle. The original diamond-set platinum bail further enhances the elegance and harmony of the piece.
Its generous dimensions and impressive presence make it both a wearable jewel and an important collector’s item.
