Details
This breath-taking mid-century convertible emerald and diamond pendant-brooch is masterfully crafted in two-tone 14ct white and yellow gold, hallmarked in Vienna and bearing Austria’s historic horse-head stamps. At the heart of its tiered cluster radiates an estimated 2.5-carat natural step-cut emerald, rich with lush green vitality, framed by an opulent double halo of sparkling diamonds totalling approx. 3.8 carats (H colour, SI1 clarity).
Revered since antiquity as the stone of Venus, the emerald symbolises passion, renewal and eternal love, embraced here by unbroken diamond halos representing devotion without end.
The piece features a secure pin and locking catch at the back, a discreet foldaway loop and a silky 15.8-inch box chain, so it can effortlessly transition from a dramatic drop necklace into a regal statement brooch. Whether catching candlelight across a dinner table or elevating an evening ensemble, it is a truly exceptional heirloom, destined to become a signature statement piece.
