About the Item
This is a stunning Victorian to Art Deco Beetle Bug Insect Pendant Necklace in Amethyst and Rock Crystal. The necklace is 27 inches long. The extraordinary jewel features an amethyst and rock crystal beetle pendant. The beetle is created with carved amethyst with silver legs. It sits atop an oval faceted rock crystal pendant. The beetle pendant dates to the Victorian to Art Deco periods. It is a gorgeous combination of lapidary jewel carving and exquisite use of amethyst and rock crystal. The pendant hangs from a chain of amethyst and rock crystal beads. The longer rock crystal beads alternate with faceted amethyst beads and rock crystal rondelles.
Insects and bugs were a favorite of the artists of the Victorian period and their wonderful designs are as coveted today as when they were created. This beetle pendant necklace is one of the most beautiful we have seen with its exquisite use of gems. The beetle necklace will dance delightfully across the body when worn and insect jewelry is all the rage today! It is a treasure to be worn with joy and to be passed on for generations.
