Jill Garber Antique Goddess Cameo, Amethyst with French Medals Drop Necklace

About the Item

An old cut, 46 carat natural Amethyst set within an elongated oval frame holds a very finely carved mid nineteenth century cameo depicting a Greek Goddess. The original delicate filigree frame of 14 karat gold is mounted within engraved sterling silver. Suspended below is a rare French drop containing over 28 fine cut clear paste stones and two old cut Amethyst. The ornate neck collar consists two exquisite large French bronze Goddess Medals and five mid 1800's filigree plaques, each having one high dome amethyst cabochon center stone. The fifth of these forms the elegant clasp. Four additional natural faceted Amethyst ovals mounted within engraved frames compile the center back links. A timeless work of art inspired by an Elizabethan Collar, this incredible drop necklace is fit for a Bohemian queen. Amethyst has been one of the world's most revered stones for many centuries. Found in Brazil, Bolivia, Mexico, Africa, Canada, Russia, the USA and Europe, this stone has a rich history that many civilizations have placed in high value. Many believe that the Amethyst crystal was synonymous with luxury. As such it was highlighted in crowns, scepters and rings, Christian Bishops once wore Amethyst rings because its purple color was meant to symbolize royalty and an allegiance to Christ. • 46 carat Natural Amethyst center stone • 2" x 1 3/4" Very Fine Antique Carved cameo in 14 karat gold mounting • Five Mid nineteenth century filigree panel links with amethyst centers • Pair of 1 1/2" French Bronze Goddess Medals mounted within engraved silver • Four Natural faceted Amethyst links • Overall Collar length : 17" - Drop add's 6" • Handcrafted in sterling silver with signature studio patina • One of a kind Jill Garber necklace • Hallmarked JG • Size adjustments are always provided as our courtesy Jill Garber’s Collection jewelry begins with antiquities uniquely designed into timeless works of art.
