A Classic Vintage Jewelry Piece!

Edwardian Belle Epoque 15K Gold Pearl Aquamarine Necklace

Three antique pendants, c. 1905.
These pendants are very British, as seed pearl jewellery of this kind was exceedingly popular in Edwardian era Britain (1901-10). Mounted in yellow gold and often accentuated by coloured gemstones that were then considered ‘semi-precious’, this type of jewellery could have been worn for informal affairs during the day. Via @hoferantikschmuck

Opal Stone

Opals have been compared to fireworks, galaxies and even volcanoes. With their beautiful array of colours, I can see why. In Ancient Rome, it was given the name ‘Opalus’ , meaning 'precious stone’. Opals were seen to be more rare than diamonds or rubies due to their flashes of light and colour, as they were known to be the stone of myths and dreams.

Many different cultures believed the stone brought power, luck and health and even today, this belief still remains.

Stunning antique opal five-stone ring dating from the early 20th century, circa 1910. The stones are bright and lively with excellent play-of-colour that appears to dance as it moves in the light - the full rainbow colour spectrum on display. It’s crafted in 18 karat gold with fine claw settings and a fluted gallery.

So what does it mean if someone gifts you an opal ?

Because of stone’s connection with the star sign Libra, it is often related to feelings of passion, love and desire.

Edwardian Demantoid Garnet & Diamond Bar Brooch

Exceptional antique bar brooch with five vivid green garnets in crown-like prong settings raised over an old cut diamond-studded bar. Crafted in 15 karat yellow gold with the finest millegrain platinum edging and settings, the diamonds graduating in size towards the central 1.33ct green garnet. The quality of craftsman ship, and of course quality of the stones (it’s rare to come across such a large demantoid garnet), is fantastic, and it looks excellent worn vertically on a pendant chain.
