Edwardian Platinum Old Mine Cut Diamond Horse Shoe Necklace

About the Item

Horseshoes are trending these days in contemporary jewelry! But equestrian motifs have been seen in jewelry since the Edwardian and Victorian eras. Most Edwardian horseshoe pieces were originally brooches, and here, we’ve converted a platinum brooch into a pendant necklace. The horseshoe is bead set with 43 chunky Old Mine Cut diamonds, in a fashion that creates a pattern of tiny V’s along the edges of the platinum. The horseshoe has a nice weight and solidity to it, as platinum is a heaver metal, and this piece feels luxurious to wear. What makes this piece so special is the selection of Old Mine Cut diamonds. 43 Old Mine Cuts are on display in this piece making this piece particularly alluring, as Old Mine Cut diamonds are rare to find. They are well-matched and graduated in size, ranging from 1 mm- 2.5 mm each. The diamonds are bright and lively, chunky with high tables, G-J in color and VS1-SL1 in clarity. There is approximately 1.75 carats of diamonds by formula. The fact that they are all Old Mine Cuts shows that this is a true Edwardian piece. The necklace weighs 9.35 grams. The platinum chain measures 16 1/4” long. The horseshoe is 1 1/4” x 1 3/16”. Circa 1910, with diamonds that are most likely from the Victorian era.

  • Edwardian 14k Gold Hand-Engraved Horse Shoe Nail Pendant
    Located in Venice, CA
    This long horseshoe nail has been converted from a pin and hangs from an oval bail like a dagger. The pointed shape of the nail connotes power, while the piece also expresses delicacy with the intricate hand-engravings of a flower and scrolling foliate. The dynamic is compelling, and the engravings are mesmerizing to look at, clearly done by a master, their details emphasized by a beautiful patina. Though unmarked, we suspect the piece was most likely made by L. Fritzsche, circa 1908, a jeweler who was known for a horseshoe bracelet with similar engravings as this one, and who was responsible for much of the equestrian jewelry created at that time. The pedant weighs 2.5 grams. It measures 2 1/2” in length, not including the 5.3 x 7.5 mm bail. It is 3/8” wide at the top, and 1/16” wide at the bottom. It acid tests as 14k. Emblematic of the popularity of equestrian jewelry, this piece also denotes power, accomplishment, strength, and skill. A great talisman that looks perfect alone on a chain or stacked with other pendants. It’s pictured here with the Victorian 18K Gold Pearl Crescent Moon, 14K Gold Signature Galaxy Moon and Stars Pendant with Diamond and Enamel, 14K Gold Edwardian Pearl and Sapphire Crescent Moon...
