Acerca del artículo

Here's something you're not going to see on every other gal in town! This necklace is composed of repurposed and new elements and it's truly one-of-a-kind. The frog with his rando elbow blingo was a brooch, and our research indicates he's a knockoff of a well-known design by Henry Dunay for Neiman Marcus in the aughts. As will happen with popular jewelry, it didn't take long before similar designs popped up by other makers -- same rough finish, same extended leg, same realistic sculpting and the same emerald eyes. A couple of years ago, we actually acquired this pin AND one of the original Dunay frogs from a customer whose mother collected frog brooches. We bought the entire collection and have been in refilling the swamp with 'em ever since! (See the last photo in the array for a group shot!) Now, when you are a goldsmith, like Eytan Brandes, and you acquire twenty-five frog brooches, you're not going to turn around and try to SELL twenty-five frog brooches because (a) brooches, life cufflinks and sweater clips, ain't quite the universal wardrobe staple they used to be; and (b) frogs make great pendants! What's better than a frog on your sweater? A frog on your neck! Eytan likes doing these kinds of conversions and he likes recycling stuff and he likes combining things, so he gave this frog a place to perch. The "leaf" was a minor part of a very dated, very large 14K gold diamond spray brooch, most of which has gone to meet its melter maker. But Eytan kept one of the modern, openwork leaves, removed all the pin crap, added a double bale structure, and now this escapee from a ghastly brooch has the happy job of giving our frog a permanent leg-up on life. One detail we like is that the leaf has a slight rosy hue, which is typical of some older 14 karat gold formulations (which used more copper than we do today). This affords some nice contrast with the strictly yellow of the 18K yellow gold frog Together they hang from a string of beautiful baroque Akoya pearls from our trusted supplier, George Hajjar of Seven Seas Pearls. Seven Seas deals exclusively in saltwater pearls -- Japanese Akoya, South Sea and Tahitian. No freshwater. Nothing from China. Baroque Akoya pearls aren't as popular in the United States as they are in Europe, but we love them, especially when they're like these: top luster, frosty white color, pink overtones, giggly-great shapes. Instead of knots, the pearls are separated by beads of vivid green chrome diopside, one of our favorite gems for beading because the piercing green color is completely natural. We made this necklace specifically for our frog and the pendant is not removable, but we're not inflexible on the point. If you would prefer the pendant without the pearls, just let us know. (The frog and the leaf, on the other hand, are joined together permanently, in a very soldered kind of way.) COMPONENT DETAILS: FROG: > Dimensions: 35mm long & 26mm wide > Diamonds: One full-cut natural round diamond (Eytan rates it H color and SI1 clarity with an estimated weight of 0.06 carats) > Emeralds: 2 cabochon eyes are 2mm each (probably a little more than 0.05 carats). > Metal: 18 karat yellow gold (stamped on inner thigh) > Finishes: textured on top and high-polish underneath > Weight: 10.1 grams LEAF: > Length: 64mm long (same as pendant) and 8mm wide at widest point > Diamonds: Three single-cut diamonds (Eytan rates them J-K color and SI1 clarity with an estimated total diamond weight of 0.03 carats) > Metal: 14 karat yellow gold (no marks but we guarantee gold content) > Weight: 5.4 grams PENDANT (frog + leaf): > Dimensions: 2.5" long & 1" wide > Total estimated emerald weight: 0.05 carats > Total estimated diamond weight: 0.12 carats > Total pendant weight: 15.5 grams NECKLACE (the whole shebang): > Pearls: 33 baroque cultured Akoyas, 8mm to 8.5mm > Chrome diopside: faceted 3mm rondelle beads > Total length: 18.5" > Clasp: vintage 14K oval box clasp with safety catch and Chinese good luck character.
