We discovered this beautiful necklace in Stuttgart - and apparently it was there, in the big city between the forest and the vines, that it was first purchased! Because the delicate, elegant necklace made of white gold and diamonds has been preserved in its original case, which bears the signature of the jeweler Karl Munz from Stuttgart on the inside. The necklace is designed as a "Y". A pendant consisting of sparkling diamonds with white gold bars is firmly attached to a delicate chain. The highlight of the design is a movable cluster of seven old-cut diamonds at the bottom, which together create the impression of a single, large diamond. The use of white gold and the antique cuts of the diamonds allow us to date the necklace to the 1920s. White gold was not used on a large scale in jewelry production until after the end of the First World War, and other diamond cuts became popular in later decades. A search in old address books adds to this assessment: Karl Munz's store in Marktstraße can be traced back to the 1920s. It appears to have been closed down at the end of the decade. The "Y" necklace was extremely popular in the countries of Central Europe in the first decades after 1900 and was repeatedly recreated in numerous variations. People loved the delicate, fine appearance resulting from the clear design. With its restrained design, the necklace can still be worn on many occasions today.
