About the Item

Mid-Century Precious Coral, Sapphire and Diamond Convertible Pendant/Brooch in 18K Gold, circa 1960s. Bold. Brilliant. Radiant from every angle. This striking brooch–pendant hybrid is a sculptural celebration of postwar optimism and unapologetic glamour. Designed as a stylized firework, its form bursts outward in a dramatic play of color and geometry—uniting rich 18k yellow gold tubing with vivid reddish-orange Mediterranean coral, deep velvety blue sapphires, and a constellation of glittering round brilliant-cut diamonds. Highly dimensional and visually magnetic, this jewel channels the vibrant spirit of the 1960s—dynamic, joyful, and unmistakably modern. Whether worn as a pendant or a brooch, it commands attention without saying a word. Fitted with a hidden bail and a secure double pin clip, the piece transforms effortlessly—pendant by day, statement brooch by night. A true collectible for those who seek bold design, masterful craftsmanship, and expressive jewels that endure. Why We Love It Because it’s fearless. This jewel doesn’t whisper—it radiates. Its silhouette is bold, its palette electrifying: velvety blues, fiery coral, and diamonds that catch the light with every movement. It captures everything we love about Mid-Century design at its most daring. Then there’s the craftsmanship—meticulous, architectural, and thoughtful. The tension between structure and movement. The seamless transition between pendant and brooch. It’s exuberant, elegant, and entirely unforgettable. Perfect for those who collect with their heart and their eye.
