Details
An exquisite antique Art Nouveau garnet pearl pendant/ brooch (c. 1900), crafted from rare 15ct yellow gold, with elegant scrolling curves and floral motifs, decorated with bright natural seed pearls. At its heart rests a seductive 4.3-carat almandine garnet cushion, with a deep red-wine hue, matched with a smaller 2.2-carat cushion garnet drop swinging freely at the bottom.
A stone of the heart, garnet has been desired throughout the ages for its strength and blazing crimson-red or cherry-pink flame that glows beneath its dark exterior. Symbolic of passion, commitment, and enduring love, it pairs beautifully with the bright lustre of pearls that represent purity and loyalty.
In excellent condition, this versatile treasure retains both its original bale and pin, allowing you to wear it as a dramatic pendant or a statement brooch. It is the perfect investment for a collector, or a meaningful January birthstone gift for someone who cherishes the romance of the past.
