AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Type of jewel: Vintage antique pendant with diamond and red four leaf clover
Condition: In well-preserved condition, especially given the jewel`s age.
Style: Vintage antique
Era: ca. 1900
Inspired by: Talismans or amulets are objects that have been worked or engraved with astrological or magical symbols intended to protect the wearer from harm.
Theme: Four-leaf clover - The four-leaf clover is traditionally considered a symbol of good luck. Its rarity made it especially attractive as a lucky motif in jewellery.
Material: 18K warm yellow gold (touchstone tested)
Diamond(s): One rose cut.
- We understand that private buyers may expect diamond weights to be provided, but in the case of rose-cut or senaille diamonds, this is simply not standard practice among industry professionals specialising in antique and vintage jewellery. Unlike brilliant-cut diamonds, where weight correlates with diameter, rose cuts vary in thickness, making weight estimation impossible once set. Providing such figures could lead to unnecessary debates, as rose-cut diamonds were traditionally valued for their visual effect rather than intrinsic worth. Even major auction houses like Sotheby’s and Christie’s rarely list their weight, except for exceptionally large stones, where diameter is often provided instead.
- All diamonds, regardless of their size or shape, in our vintage and antique jewellery are verified as 100% natural by the IJGC laboratory.
Precious stone(s): Four red strass, also called paste, as ruby imitation and one man-made half seed stone pearl
Birth and month stones: Diamond is the birthstone (or month stone) for April, Ruby is the birthstone (or month stone) for July, and Pearl is the birthstone (or month stone) for June.
Hallmarks: No trace.
Dimensions: diameter 2,10 cm (0,83 inch) - See picture with a ruler in cm and inches
Weight: 3,00 gram (1,93 dwt)
