A fine and impressive single strand, matinee length, cultured pearl necklace with a 0.25 carat diamond, 9 carat white gold clasp; part of our diverse necklace and pendant collection

This fine and impressive single strand pearl necklace consists of one hundred and twelve individually knotted cultured pearls graduating in size (2mm-6mm), the largest being in the centre.

This fine matinee length pearl necklace (circa 1960)secures to the reverse with an antique (circa 1900) 9ct white gold push fit clasp crafted in the form of a pierced decorated, subtle quatrefoil design.

The clasp is ornamented with millegrain decorated borders and a combination of seven Old European cut and eight-cut diamonds.

Amalgamating antique and vintage elements to produce a single item of jewellery was common practice in the mid 1900s.

This vintage and antique cultured pearl necklace is supplied with an IDGL diamond grading report card.

The push fit clasp has been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 9ct white gold.

Images do not always reflect the true colour and brilliance of gemstones and diamonds. The video however provides a truer representation of the actual colour and showcases each stone.

This impressive necklace is fine quality set with one hundred and twelve, graduating, cultured pearls and very high colour graded old cut diamonds.

The vintage necklace is a very good gauge of gold and is in excellent condition.

Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this fine example of pearl jewellery.
