Antique old cut diamond and gold necklace. Made in Russia 19th century. <P><P>
Length of chain is 17 1/2 inches. Distance from top of bow to bottom of longest drop is a little over 2 inches. Weighs 22grams.<P><P>
A sturdy chain with rectangular links suspends a sweep of diamonds in the form of a central flower with long, curly leaves on either side of it. A series of 5 drops dangle from the flower and foliage, graded in length with the longest in the middle. Each of these consists of a long gold arm with circles containing small diamonds, like little bubbles, that lead the eye to a very large diamond on the end of the drop. The smaller diamonds are set in a simple round collette, the larger in a flower like openwork setting. The drops are joined to the upper section by loops which allows them to move. The necklace is quite stunning when worn. <P> The necklace has a sturdy loop clasp. <P><P>
THe clasp has a number of hallmarks on the loops, (see 'photos).<P><P>
Very good condition.
