We discovered this pendant in London and were immediately impressed by its spring-like shine. It has a luminous amethyst at its center. The stone weighs around 13.50 ct and sparkles in a deep purple. Its unusual cut blends elements of the facet cut with the cabochon cut, as the table is domed. A smaller, natural chrysoberyl in light, spring-like green is set under the larger amethyst and forms the lower connection of the pendant, which is crafted from warm, shiny gold. Small, filigree leaves hold the eyelet, which leads to the golden chain. We thought long and hard about when this pendant was probably created. Individual elements are certainly old and were created as early as the 19th century. However, the composition of the ornaments, settings and gemstones was probably not created until the 20th century. The cut of the amethyst, for example, was certainly created more recently. Thus, antique and modern elements form something atmospherically new, a so-called "mariage". We think that the pendant was created in the 1970s, when colorful jewellery once again became fashionable. We discovered the pendant in London and added a matching gold chain.
