{"product_id":"late-19th-century-diamond-silver-gold-fringe-necklace","title":"Late 19th Century Diamond Silver \u0026 Gold Fringe Necklace","description":"\u003cp\u003eA wonderfully romantic late 19th-century diamond fringe necklace, dating to circa 1880-1890, designed as a graceful series of scrolling foliate sections and delicate articulated drops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe necklace is set throughout with rose-cut diamonds and old cut diamonds, their softly faceted surfaces catching the light with the gentle, silvery sparkle so characteristic of 19th-century jewellery. The diamonds are set in silver to the front, with gold backing and fittings behind, a classic period construction used to enhance the whiteness of the stones while protecting the skin from direct contact with silver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design alternates scrolling, almost ribbon-like motifs with delicate three-leaf drops, creating a wonderfully light and feminine rhythm across the neckline. Tiny articulated elements give the necklace movement when worn, allowing the rose cuts to shimmer rather than flash in the manner of later brilliant-cut diamonds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is a lovely naturalism to the design, with the leaf and scroll motifs reflecting the late Victorian taste for botanical forms, while the asymmetrical curves lend it a distinctly Continental feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnhallmarked, but stylistically and technically consistent with French or Continental European work of the late 19th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is exactly the sort of antique diamond necklace that feels romantic rather than formal: beautifully detailed, wonderfully wearable, and with all the character one hopes to find in an original late 19th-century jewel.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Parkin and Gerrish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57612271747445,"sku":"202M","price":31500.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0373\/3428\/6475\/files\/DSC_0616_6fbfbde2-3063-45fc-a7aa-177b58df4202.jpg?v=1790550247","url":"https:\/\/parkinandgerrish.com\/fr-dk\/products\/late-19th-century-diamond-silver-gold-fringe-necklace","provider":"Parkin and Gerrish","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
