Georgian Necklaces
GEORGIAN STYLE
Georgian jewelry is named for the monarchies of the four King Georges, who in succession ruled England starting in 1714 (plus King William’s reign, which lasted until 1837). A slew of beautiful pieces were produced during the period, and today antique Georgian rings, necklaces and other accessories are coveted by fine jewelry collectors.
There are certain features that distinguish jewelry from this era, including the fact that pieces from the 18th and early 19th centuries were handmade (so don’t let the absence of a maker’s mark lead you to believe otherwise). Antique Georgian jewelry also has a certain “look.” It’s a bit gray because stones were often set in silver, and because stonecutting techniques were not as advanced as they are today, the gems do not possess the level of sparkle to which we have become accustomed.
Intricate metalworking techniques such as repoussé (the hammering of metal into ornate designs) and cannetille (a method of working the gold wire to make it look woven) allowed goldsmiths to really flex their muscles. These gold pieces, either on their own or combined with gemstones, made for highly original and dramatic jewelry. The era also saw pieces with ornately woven strands of human hair.
Pearls, along with colored gemstones like garnets, rubies and sapphires, were widely used in Georgian jewelry. These were often cut in the shape of a cabochon or teardrop. It was fashionable to combine garnets or rubies with seed pearls. In Georgian diamond rings, popular cuts for diamonds included rose, old mine and table. Around the 1780s, paste jewelry, or hand-cut glass on foil, was used to imitate diamonds.

Ruby Moonstone with Glass Moser Chatelaine Heart Scent Bottle, La Vie En Rose
Located in Colleyville, TX
When I first began collecting these lovely scent bottles, they were readily available and quite lovely. Fast forward thru the pandemic plus everyone figuring out this gorgeous format and they supply has simply dried up! Be that as it may, when I do find a lovely scent bottle that is reasonably priced, I do tend to snag it. The is the case with this Moser hand painted scent bottle in the shape of a pink heart. Although the stopper is now missing, it is not an unusual predicament to not find them in place on these scent bottles. When you realize how very tiny they are, that should easily explain how they might have been lost or damaged over the past hundreds of years.
Since Viva Magenta is the Panatone 2023 color of the year, this dreamy necklace should easily fit into that category with its confectionary pink colors and sweet heart design. The necklace portion consists of pink oval moonstone gems that are hand-linked and feature a small puffy gold...

Antique Georgian Carnelian Small Fob Pendant
Located in Rotterdam, NL
This antique Georgian fob pendant, dating back to the late 18th to early 19th century, is a fine example of the elegant craftsmanship of the period. The pendant is adorned with a carnelian stone, a richly colored orange-red gemstone that was highly favored during the Georgian era. The carnelian is polished and set securely into a decorative metal mount, featuring engraved lines throughout the fob. The pendant’s design reflects the artistic trends of the time, combining functionality with aesthetic appeal.
Fobs were originally practical items used to seal letters and documents with wax. The base of the fob, typically engraved with a crest, monogram, or decorative motif, would leave an imprint in the wax, serving as a personalized signature. This made them essential tools for gentlemen and women of status during the Georgian era, as they were used for authenticating important communications.
Beyond their functional purpose, fobs quickly became fashionable accessories, symbolizing wealth, style, and social standing. Worn on a pocket watch chain, waistcoat, or as pendants, fobs often showcased intricate designs and high-quality materials, such as precious stones like carnelian, amethyst, or agate. The vibrant carnelian stone was particularly popular due to its durability and its association with protection, vitality, and courage.
Over time, fobs evolved from purely utilitarian objects to highly decorative jewelry pieces, admired for their beauty and craftsmanship. They were often gifted as sentimental tokens or symbols of affection, further enhancing their appeal.
