Details
Behold the majesty of this breath-taking vintage aquamarine and diamond pendant, built around an enormous emerald-cut aquamarine, weighing an astonishing 74.5 carats. The gemstone displays a serene, crystal-clear blue hue, its expertly cut linear facets shimmering like a calm, rippling pool as they catch the light. It is framed within a robust 18ct white gold four-prong gallery with open-worked sides, surmounted by a magnificent crown of sculpted leaves, reminiscent of a pineapple. They’re encrusted with an array of twinkling single-cut diamonds, with additional stones wrapping over the base, totalling approx. 0.85 carats.
Aquamarine is the birthstone of March and takes its name from its serene blue-green hue, believed to inspire happiness, clarity, and good fortune. Its gentle ocean tones pair beautifully with the dazzling sparkle of diamonds, together evoking the shimmering dance of sunlight across a crystal-clear ocean.
In pristine condition, this exceptional pendant showcases one of the largest and most impressive aquamarines we have ever encountered, set within a substantial white gold gallery masterfully crafted to highlight its extraordinary beauty. A truly magnificent mid-century statement piece that was designed to captivate attention and inspire admiration wherever it’s worn.
