This lavalier is Art Nouveau in design. It is made of 10 k gold, and is set with a garnet/glass doublet* The pendant is 1 1/4" x 5/8" in size and is on a 16" gold filled chain. * Garnet glass doublets were made in Victorian/Art Nouveau times; molded glass 'stones' were topped with a thin slice of garnet. Color comes from the glass, as the garnet is so thin that the red color is not apparent. Email for a writeup on the process.

Fit for a queen! Here is a gorgeous 18 k gold open-work necklace. Two palmate elements on each side join in a filigree-like round element that suspends a fifth, larger palmate element. The chain consists of three round links connecting marquise-shaped filigree links. The French eagle mark, indicating both French origin and 18 k gold, is on the clasp. The necklace is a generous 17 1/2" long. This piece is both elegant and simple. Circa 1890-1900
