About the Item
This cool, colorful pendant came to us as a pin, but it had no identifying hallmarks, so we're not too sure about its origins. In the 1950s and 1960s, Brazilian jewelers made pieces like this to showcase their country's gemological riches (H. Stern's oft-copied "Sputnik" pendant is a good example), and the customer from whose estate we purchased the pin had other pieces from Brazil, so we're assuming it's mid-Century, probably Brazilian.
Most of the stones are tourmaline, including the beautiful center stone -- a 2.7 carat cut-corner step cut (not quite emerald cut).
The "stem" is set with almandine garnets, and there are four more garnets on the perimeter. The yellow stones are citrines. The rest of the stones are tourmalines. (Note that we're not sure about the four small orange stones dotting the center stone; they're most likely either hessonite garnet or madeira citrine, and we've assumed the latter.)
The stem garnets are straight baguettes, while the round stones are mostly single cuts, though some show a little extra faceting.
In total, there are 35 stones. We conservatively estimate the total gem weight at 9.36 carats:
12 citrines - 2.16 carats
9 garnets - 1.75 carats
14 tourmalines - 5.45 carats
The "flower" stones are all prong-set in deep open bezels, while the stem is a channel with prongs to hold the ends of each garnet. Beautiful workmanship throughout.
We removed the pin hardware and added a simple bale, which includes a nicely oversized closed jump ring to accommodate all manner of chain hardware. Speaking of chains, the copper-colored wrapped fiber cord, shown in some of the photos, is included. It's about 16" long and has a black bayonet closure.
With the bale, the pendant measures 2.2" long and 1.13" wide.
As mentioned above, this pendant doesn't have any markings but we guarantee it to be 14 karat gold. The pendant weighs 11.3 grams, so the gold weight is no more than 9.5 grams.

"Rose Drop" Pendant with Sapphires & Old Cut Diamonds on Chain in Mixed Gold
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
Eytan Brandes assembled this graceful, sexy little pendant from three different pieces:
The 18 karat yellow gold "rose" came off of a frankly hideous 1940s brooch. (The sum of its parts has proved greater than the whole; we're still using bits torn off this monster, and the pieces -- little petals and flowers and leaves and stems -- always look great when they're separated from the mother ship, but when combined in one brooch: a garish mess!)
The "stem" was actually a link from a very old (pre-1900), very fabulous but very fussy (and very prongy) diamond bracelet which Eytan resized for a customer, keeping a link as payment. The bottom diamond was badly damaged so rather than trying to match the top diamonds, Eytan replaced it with a nice sapphire.
The little 14 karat white gold tri-tipped top piece was the bale from a 1960s birthstone pendant, which Eytan scored and trimmed to match the stem.
Finally, Eytan added the perfect delivery system: a choker-length Boston link...

Mid-Century Leafy Sprig Pendant with Citrines in Yellow Gold on Lapis Bead Chain
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
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...
