Luxurious Chinese Deco era Freshwater pearls from some time between the ’20s to the ’40s. The antique baroque pearl necklace is a stunning 31.5″ long, stringing four individual strands of genuine baroque pearls, with a 14k clasp and early un-knotted pearls. The necklace is in mint condition. Its extra long design makes this pearl necklace unlike any other, with many ways to wear.

A single strand of 7mm Japanese pearls from the 40s and possibly earlier, with an elegant 14k white gold clasp. The strand measures 14.5″ long, a recommended length for small-sized pearls when worn near the collar bone.

Victorian hand-carved amethyst pendant with a Gothic prong diamond inset. The diamond shape is about half an inch and hangs off a filigree spoke, in a 14k rose gold mount. The lavalier is about 1.5″ long.

Early 19th century Japanese plique a jour button-pendant. This is not the same as painted glass, but rather layer after layer of glass enamel is fired over a copper base, in clear and different colors each time, each layer taking its time. Earlier the wire cloisons would be fired over the clear enamel base before the colored layers are added, layer by layer until the desired translucence is achieved.

This joyous Japanese piece is a generous size button, about 4.5cm, to be worn as a pendant. It is uncommon to find a plique a jour enamel piece in this size. Its colors are actually lighter and almost pastel in daylight.

Chimera, won't you tell me your love?

If not, your longing?
