Early 20th Century 9ct Yellow Gold Sapphire and Seed Pearl Pendant, Brooch

£495
| /

A refined and elegant dual-use pendant brooch in 9ct yellow gold, dating to the early 20th century. The piece features a delicate openwork frame of scrolling gold in the Art Nouveau style, echoing the organic and flowing lines of nature.

A deep blue oval-cut sapphire forms the centrepiece, enhanced by a suspended pear-shaped sapphire drop and framed by twelve creamy white natural seed pearls. The fluid, balanced design captures the graceful aesthetic of Edwardian and Art Nouveau jewellery, combining lightness with exquisite craftsmanship.
