About the Item

This is a stunning Art Nouveau - Art Deco Rose Cut and Old MIne Cut Diamond, Sapphire, Ruby and Pearl Dragonfly Insect Pendant Necklace and chain in 14 Karat Gold. The magnificent dragonfly has a central Old Mine Cut Diamond of great beauty. The wings are set with Rose Cut Diamonds and the edges of the wings adorned with square cut natural fine blue Sapphires. The eyes are round faceted Rubies. The tail is set with fancy cut fine blue Sapphires. The dragonfly hangs from a gorgeous pearl. The pendant is 14 Karat Gold. The pendant hangs from a beautiful heavy 14 Karat Gold chain. Dragonflies were a favorite of the artists of the Art Nouveau period and their wonderful designs are as coveted today as when they were created. This dragonfly pendant is one of the most beautiful we have seen with its exquisite use of fine gems. All of the gems are set "a jour" - open backed, in order to let the maximum amount of light through the gems and create the diaphanous light filled effect of the dragonfly wings. The pendant dates to the Art Nouveau to Art Deco period, circa 1890-1930. The dragonfly necklace will dance delightfully across the body when worn and insect jewelry is all the rage today! The dragonfly pendant is 21mm long and is 15mm wide. The necklace chain is 18 inches long. The necklace weighs 4.3 grams. The pendant and chain are 14 Karat Gold.

Located in New York, NY
This is a spectacular antique Victorian - Belle Epoque Butterfly Pendant or Brooch set throughout with Rose Cut Diamonds, Pearls and Rubies in a gorgeous open work design in Silver atop 14 Karat Yellow Gold. This is one of the most beautiful Butterfly Insect jewels we have seen. The Butterfly has a detachable brooch pin on the reverse which can be easily unscrewed to convert the jewel to a pendant necklace. The Butterfly is set throughout its wings with Rose Cut Diamonds. Each diamond is set within its own open work section. The sections are then combined into a fully three dimensional butterfly with exquisite craftsmanship and artistry. In the center of the body are four stunning silvery white pearls which may be natural. The eyes of the insect are two round Ruby cabochons. The diamonds and pearls are set in silver as was the custom of the period in order to show off the diamonds to greater brilliance. The butterfly wings are masterworks of jewelry making and diamond setting. The extraordinary jewels are all set "a jour" - open backed - so that the light is allowed to filter through the gems and make them sparkle with the wonderful quality we love in the antique jewels. This whimsical butterfly dances delightfully around the neck or across the body and creates a conversation piece to be passed on for generations. And insect inspired jewels are all the rage today. And here we have the magnificent butterfly with the exquisite gems and delicate design - how rare! The Victorians were absolutely enamored with nature and insects and created jewels as well as sculptures of the fascinating creatures. These antique butterfly gems...
