We are delighted to offer this marvellous antique Georgian 9ct gold natural seed pearl necklace.
Sweet, delicate and enchanting, this necklace presents a classical Georgian design adorned with fine seed pearls all meticulously drilled and threaded.
Seed pearl jewellery became fashionable in the late Georgian period and these natural pearls (2mm or less and varied in shape due to natural sourcing) were intricately crafted into all manner of jewellery such as necklaces, earrings and even tiaras.
Traditionally in such times, jewellery was often associated with symbolic meanings and seed pearls were usually associated with innocence and purity. As such, this necklace could serve as the perfect gift for a young lady on their 18th birthday or as a versatile and understated yet elegant accoutrement to have in one's collection.
Without ostentatiousness yet distinguished from many contemporary pieces, this necklace presents a wonderful balance of classical beauty and historical interest - a conversation starter and a wonderful manner to express your passion for intricate antiques. One can imagine how painstaking and intricate the craftsmanship would need to be in order to drill these fine pearls without breaking and threading them all uniformly into a single necklace strand.
A perfect piece to wear with many attires whether be it on its own or with other jewellery.
The clasp is marked 9ct gold and is of a rose gold tone - this appears to be a later clasp.
All of our jewellery comes with a complimentary hard shell gift box with a velvet interior.
