Art Deco "ecliptis" Pendant, Diamonds, Sapphires And Platinum
Art Deco Pendant
In platinum 950, drop-shaped, centered with an old-cut round diamond of approximately 0.30 ct, highlighted by a setting of calibrated sapphires. Surmounted by a pear-shaped motif set with diamonds and sapphires. Three bezel-set diamonds, linked by two fine diamond-set bars, attach the pendant to an 18k white gold chain, likely added later.
Circa 1925.
Details :
Pendant height: 3.5 cm
Chain length: 51 cm
Gross weight: 6 g (Pendant: Pt - 950/1000 - French hallmark, "tête de vieillard"; chain: 18k gold - 750/1000 - French hallmark, "hibou").
Condition:
Very good overall condition. This jewel perfectly reflects the refined aesthetic of the Art Deco period. The sides are delicately engraved with a fine frieze. The central diamond shows an attractive estimated H color and SI clarity, consistent with its period. The sapphires display an intense, vivid blue, bright without being overly dark, and with good transparency. One baguette surrounding the central diamond shows a small chip. The contrast between the deep blue of the sapphires and the whiteness of the diamond enhances the composition, a characteristic practice of Art Deco design. The current pendant mounting is likely later.
