Combining rare 19th-century craftsmanship with exceptional versatility, the Clasp features double receipt fasteners and a detachable Diamond bale, allowing it to convert seamlessly into a striking Diamond Pendant. This historic piece is also accompanied by eight extra Cultured Pearls, preserved should you wish to adjust the length in the future.
The centrepiece boasts a spectacular Oval Old Cut Diamond of approximately 1.00 Carat, possessing G Colour and VS2 Clarity. This exceptional stone is framed by a dazzling halo of 117 Old Mine & Rose Cut Diamonds, assessed at 4.35 Carats with G - H Colour and VS1 - VS2 Clarity. The sparkling cluster beautifully complements the three rows of Cultured Pearls, which measure 6.00 - 6.99 mm and display a warm Cream Colour, Orient Overtone, Good Lustre, and a lightly Spotted Surface.
Steeped in history, the fine Clasp is Victorian, English Circa 1870, while the Cultured pearls are Circa 1910. Offering timeless sophistication and a storied past, this convertible statement necklace is a truly unique addition to any fine jewellery collection.
