Emerald "Green O'Clock" White Gold Watch Conversion Pendant with Emerald Chain
About the Item
Eytan Brandes used the case from a very old (probably 1920 or thereabouts) ladies wristwatch to make this one-of-a-kind pendant.
The case is 14 karat white gold with sharp engraving on the front plus some stamped scrollwork on the sides and coin-edging throughout.
The corners are set with minimally though nicely faceted sapphire triangles (we're assuming they're synthetic, since that would have been customary for a ladies wristwatch in this period). Two very small single-cut diamonds are set at the watchface opening's ends, and one more, even smaller diamond is set on the triangular shoulder piece (which originally connected to a velvet watchstrap).
We purchased the rough emerald and had it cut and polished to fit the watchface opening. It's very "dirty" as emeralds go -- mostly opaque and ranging in color from a rich, chewy dark to medium-light green with the barest hint of blue. The blatant inclusions -- dramatic dark crystal streaks running across the stone -- only add to the stone's character.
We think this pendant looks great with a heavier chain, such as a thick cord, gold mesh, or beads. With that in mind, Eytan added an oversized top loop (the inside dimensions are about 6mm x 7mm) in recycled 14 karat white gold. We made a beaded necklace to match the pendant with double strands of 3.5mm natural emerald beads. This necklace is 17.5" long and has a 14 karat white gold box clasp. The pendant slides on and off, so you can mix or match, but if you would prefer the pendant without the chain, or if you would like us to source another type of chain for you, please just let us know. We'll provide adjusted pricing and options.

- "Gosh" Freeform Pendant in 18K Gold with Diamond & Beryl Slice on Sapphire ChainBy Eytan BrandesLocated in Sherman Oaks, CAThis one-of-a-kind pendant by Eytan Brandes features a freeform slice of gold, set with a diamond, over a freeform slice of goshenite. Goshenite is a variety of beryl -- basically aquamarine without color. We acquired a little pile of this stuff -- the palest of pale blue and oddly cut -- and were at a loss as to what to do with it until Eytan hit on the idea of setting one of them in a bezel with an oxidized (blackened) inside pan. We love the end result. The swirly pattern of the oxidization plus the faceting plus the minute coloration of the stone combine to give this humble gem a truly unique, shimmery look -- worthy, even, of a hearty "Gosh!" (if anyone actually said "gosh" anymore...) By contrast, the diamond, bezel-set to float in the opening of Eytan's 18 karat gold shard, involves absolutely no hanky-panky. It's an earth-mined, natural and untreated stone weighing 0.04 carats -- a small but high quality sparkler (Eytan rates it G-H color and VS2 clarity). The hand-wrought pulled wire bale is roughly oval-shaped and oversized, since Eytan envisioned his pendant would be paired with beads (which generally require a bigger bale than a chain), but removable. We think our choker-length strand of faceted but rough sapphire...Category

- 150 Carat Custom-Cut Golden Quartz & Diamond Pendant in White GoldBy Eytan BrandesLocated in Sherman Oaks, CAStory 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...Category
