About the Item

Period: late 19th century Measurements: 7,9 cm x 6,2 cm Lenght: 37/42 cm Weight: 47,85 gr The necklace, from the second half of the 19th century, features a cross-shaped pendant featuring five fancy-cut amethysts set within a 14-karat yellow gold setting, whose prongs contribute to give an extremely delicate and refined decorative effect. The pendant, moreover, is enriched by the presence of eight tiny natural pearls placed at the ends and at the joint points of the arms of the cross. The necklace is completed by an original gold chain stamped with the manufacturer's mark, featuring a lily inserted into a lozenge. The chain also allows length adjustment thanks to the presence of additional links that can be easily inserted, allowing the necklace to be increased from approximately 37 to 42 centimetres in length. In the end, the necklace is preserved in its original case, which can be attribute to the jeweller of the Royal Court Wilm in Berlin.

Holbeinesque Amethyst Diamond Enamel Natural Pearl and Gold Pendant, Circa 1865
Located in Firenze, IT
Period: 1865 Provenance: United Kingdom Dimensions: 7,5 x 3,8 cm Weight: 15,93 gr This yellow gold Holbeinesque pendant is characterized by a central Siberian amethyst of approximately 10 carats, surrounded by rose cut diamonds and polychrome cloisonné enamels, embellished with further rose cut diamonds, while the external profiling of the pendant is characterized by minute natural pearls; the lower part, however, is completed by a square-shaped pendant in which the diamonds and cloisonné enamels return. The back of the pendant, however, still deserves attention as it is finely engraved with an arabesque motif which gives further preciousness to the object. The Holbein style, of which this pendant is an example, is inspired by the original jewellery designs of the German painter Hans Holbein the Younger (1497 – 1543), court painter to King Henry VII...
