Victorian Emerald and Opal, Yellow Gold, Three Locket Necklace

About the Item

An exceptional, fine and impressive, original antique Victorian 0.24 carat emerald and opal 15 karat yellow gold three locket necklace; part of our diverse antique pendant collection. This exceptional, fine and impressive antique Victorian three locket necklace has been crafted in 15k yellow gold. The three lockets/pendants have circular, cushion style designs accented with applied geometric decoration to each anterior face. Each design is ornamented with a central step cut emerald, and four cabochon opals displayed in subtle relief between four applied scrolling motifs. The three pendants incorporate a circular locket compartment to the reverse, permitting a personal memento or keepsake to be retained behind the glass and gold push fit cover. The lower border of each pendant is embellished with fully articulated chain drops accented with ball terminals. The upper borders are decorated with open wirework and bead detailing. This stunning and original example of Victorian craftsmanship incorporates a substantial rope twist 15k yellow gold 46cm/18' chain, which secures to the reverse with a push fit cylinder clasp, benefiting from the additional security of a fine link safety chain. The anterior portion of this impressive chain bifurcates at the upper pendants, creating an attractive swag style effect to the necklace. All three pendants are suspended from the necklace via feature belt and buckle designs which bear the ring loop attachments from which the pendants articulate. The necklace has been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 15 karat gold. The impressive Victorian lockets and necklace is supplied with an IDGL gemstone grading report card 'Rather than regarding inclusions in coloured stones as harmful, in small sizes and numbers that do not in any way detract from their beauty, they should be regarded as adding to desirability, for they provide identifying characteristics.' Reference: The Connoisseur's Guide to Precious Gemstones, R. Wise, Brunswick House Press. Images do not always reflect the true colour and brilliance of gemstones and diamonds. The video however provides a truer representation of the actual colour and showcases each stone. Condition This original 1880's three locket necklace is exceptional quality, set with impressive emeralds and opals displaying fine colour. All the components are an exceptional gauge of gold and are in excellent condition. The glass to each locket is in perfect condition; the original paper backing to one locket has been lost. Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this fine example of Victorian jewellery.
