About the Item
Fine antique natural facet cut graduated oval amethyst and silver Riviere necklace
19th Century
Composed of twenty six natural oval facet cut graduated purple amethysts set in silver. The amethysts gemstones well matched, lively, hand faceted, of a rich purple color and excellent clarity.
The name riviere comes from the French for "river", romantically referencing how the gemstones flow around the neck. These necklaces were popular during the Georgian era and are also known as "collet set" necklaces. In recent times, Anna Wintour, the celebrated British American editor-in-chief of Vogue, created an iconic signature look wearing antique Riviere necklaces. Classic, glamorous and timeless, these beautiful necklaces continue to enchant.
