Vintage and Modern: Art Deco French, Diamond and Platinum Pendant on Long Lariat Chain

This is a sparkling Art Deco diamond and platinum brooch from France which holds approximately 2.75 carats of rose cut and old European cut diamonds. A beautiful sparkler such as this should be on display, so we converted it to a pendant and designed a diamond lariat necklace to accompany it.

• The platinum chain is 20 inches long with an additional 3 inch drop. The pendant is another 1 3/4 inch. For a total length of 24 3/4 inches. The width of the pendant at the widest point is .6 of an inch or 15.7 mm.
• It has approximately 2.75 carats of old European cut and rose-cut diamonds. The diamond at the “Y” juncture of the chain is modern, brilliant-cut diamond, .15 ct, G-H in color, also set in platinum.

• Pendant: France.

• The pendant (originally a brooch) is circa 1920's (Art Deco). It is not marked, but has been tested and is platinum.

• The pendant is of fine construction and in very good condition. The Y-chain with diamond juncture is modern/new.

Sugar et Cie believes that even the small details are important, so we applied a millegrain around the platinum bezel of the diamond in the chain, to match the millegrain that surrounds the diamonds in the pin. The chain is also platinum, a metal we love to use for necklaces as it's hard to beat its delicate lacey look and strong durable nature.
