DATE: Edwardian, c.1910

An exceptional Edwardian lavaliere pendant dating from the early 20th century, circa 1910. The craftsmanship is remarkable, with diamond-set floral and foliate swirls emanating from a central cushion cut sapphire. It also features a total of seven pearls - the bottom a fine baroque example - and settings in millegrain platinum. It's modelled in 18k gold, with two hooks to attach a chain, and also fittings for wear as a brooch.
