A sky-blue turquoise in a simple gold frame forms the center of a drop-shaped pendant made of gold. Eight small cushion-cut diamonds are set at regular intervals in mirror settings. Dark blue enamel on a gold background adorns the background with baroque jewellery. Another cushion-cut diamond in a silver setting is movably mounted above the drop and leads to a simple anchor chain. The large gemstone weighs over half a carat. This piece of jewellery was created in our workshop from individual historical pieces. Originally, the antique set pieces belonged to a large brooch from the 1870s, which came to us incomplete. We thought it would be a shame to remove the beautiful old gemstones from their settings and re-set them in a modern way, so our goldsmith designed this simple necklace, which is also special due to its antique elements. Persian turquoises were particularly prized in the 19th century, as their color was reminiscent of the flowers of the forget-me-not. This symbolic meaning is also reflected in the "Gem Lore", the gemstone language of times gone by. Natural turquoises of this quality are rare today, and the stone set here shows no mother stone or black veining.
