 Georgian Necklace and Earrings,Gold, Garnet and Pearl
How to say extraordinary without really trying; this is what occurs when we look at this georgian garnet necklace and earring combination. The finest georgian garnet jewelry is scarcely available today. These garnets are the color of quality bordeaux that has been lit by candlelight. In the georgian period all precious and non precious stones were backed by a thin sheet of foil to enhance the minimal light refraction of the available evening candlelight. The garnets and foil in these pieces are sealed in settings of at least 15kt gold. There is no foil deterioration because the jewels were made with great expertise by a jeweler who had the knowledge of making air tight settings. Oval stones, approx 1/2/ inch wide, garnet leaves and round stones are linked with gold. Our necklace and earrings are enhanced by the contrast of natural pearls. All work was done by hand.The condition is pristine. Exact measurements will be supplied later. today.
