Designed and fully hand created by Louis Comfort Tiffany and his jewelry studio between approximately 1910 and 1920, this moonstone, sapphire and platinum pendant hangs from a later sapphire chain. The pendant is designed as an elongated teardrop form centering a flexibly-set oval cabochon moonstone with foliate engraved edges, within a shaped frame of circular-cut sapphires accented by scrolling wirework and beads, suspended from a later delicate double 18K white gold chain of spectacle-set circular-cut sapphires.

Literature: A substantially similar demi-parure in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, is pictured in Jewellery in the Age of Queen Victoria, by Charlotte Gere and Judy Rudoe, p.17. The image of the demi-parure is accompanied by an image of a lithograph of a young Queen Victoria wearing a substantially similar demi-parure. Macklowe Gallery Curator's Notes: Queen Victoria, whom the artistic record shows owned a substantially similar demi-paure, was deeply interested in couture and jewelry. Often, she chose to wear jewelry by British makers, in many cases work that was historically inspired and/or sentimental, knowing that her choices were closely observed by the public. These jewels were often relatively modest in value, and accessible to aspiring women of the British middle class. Blood-red cabochon-cut gems have been known throughout history as "carbuncles", and their use in gold jewelry was highly popular in the sentimental, symbolism-loving Victorian period in England. In the 19th century, the new study of of archaeology had revealed that the garnet was a favorite precious stone of the Hellenistic Greeks, who centered carbuncles in wedding jewelry such as gold bracelets and garment appliqués fashioned...
