Early-20th Century Garnet Necklace

Circa 1895-1915. This stunning necklace is a richly detailed example of late-Victorian to early-Edwardian design, showcasing a graceful balance of structure and fluidity.

The deep red garnets are arranged in a symmetrical composition that follows the neckline's curve, reflecting the refined elegance of the transitional period between Victorian richness and Edwardian delicacy.

A single teardrop garnet is suspended below, adding movement and elongation to the design. Set in warm-toned 14KT yellow gold, the garnets are presented in smooth, continuous settings that emphasize their color and depth. The overall effect is both romantic and composed—ornate without excess, and beautifully proportioned. The necklace measures 16 inches in length.
