Flower Pendant in Yellow Gold with Nine Carats of Tourmaline, Garnet & Citrine

Story time! About ten years ago, one of Eytan Brandes' customers bought this enormous quartz at a gem show and asked Eytan to make her a diamond pendant to show it off. Eytan made the pendant, set the diamonds, added a fixed chain, then, well, he dropped the quartz. It didn't break, but it suffered an internal (not surface-reaching) fracture that is more or less visible depending on the angle of the pendant. You can see it in the photos for yourself. Eytan told the client, went back to the original gem dealer, and ordered up another enormous custom-cut quartz. Since the measurements of the new stone were different, he made an entirely new pendant for the new stone and the customer went away happy. Phew. That left Eytan with a big flawed quartz and a big gold pendant. Fast forward to 2022: after years of languishing in the back of the safe, Eytan decided that it would be a shame to deny these two outlandish baubles a chance. He made some changes, though. First, he dipped the pendant in rhodium, turning it white. Then he removed the chain, which oriented the pendant horizontally, and he added a new bale (fashioned from a 1950s white gold wedding band!) so that the pendant now hangs vertically. The 82 diamonds on the halo are all tiny but good quality (G-H color and VS clarity) natural, untreated earth-mined and full cut diamonds with a total weight of 0.40 carats. The four diamonds on the bale are of lower quality (probably more like J-K color and SI clarity), with an estimated total weight of about 0.04 carats. The quartz is a 150 carat...

This large and sexy pendant was a brooch that's been sitting in the safe since dinosaurs roamed the earth. Eytan Brandes always liked the color of the gold and the contrast with the stones, but he didn't really like it as a piece of jewelry until he conceived of hanging it face down as a pendant. The leaves are highly detailed with veins and texture, and their outer edges are polished to give them definition, but the inner surfaces manage to be frosty and matte at the same time, giving the gold a pale, slightly rosy appearance. The citrine berries, on their polished stalks really pop against this background. The leaves are gathered by a ribbon, complete with a "fibrous" Florentine finish. The back is high polish and almost as beautiful as the front. The hidden bale is located behind one of the stems and is large enough to accommodate most chain hardware. We've paired it with a 17" long necklace of polished and faceted 4mm lapis beads. The closure is a 14 karat gold box...
