A very exciting and sensuous Victorian Eastlake style necklace, designed in the most elegant flourish!
Crafted circa 1870 in 14 carat gold, this aesthetic movement relic has the most beautiful silken chain – very reminiscent of a braided trimming. Each detail is a feast for the eyes: the central element, which is fashioned in an extravagant fleur-de-lis construction, features curled foliage motifs, and a labyrinthine design in the front. The tassels at the bottom are simply opulent, with delicate braided chains that terminate into gilded gold boules. Victorian artistry at its very finest!
Another notable feature of this piece is the versatility of all its elements. The central medallion can be detached, allowing the wearer to style this piece as a simple chain, while attaching the medallion to a ribbon, or even fashioning it into a brooch with a back attachment. The long tassel terminals also have the potential to become earrings as well.
An outstanding example of American Aestheticism. This treasure is sure to be a beloved addition to any antique jewelry collection!
