Edwardian 9ct Gold Aquamarine & Seed Pearl Lavaliere Pendant
An elegant Edwardian lavaliere pendant crafted in 9ct yellow gold, featuring flowing openwork lines, foliate motifs, and delicate floral accents typical of early 20th-century design.
The pendant is set with two bright aquamarines of vivid blue tone, complemented by natural seed pearls arranged throughout the scrolling frame. Its refined silhouette and movement epitomise the light, feminine aesthetic of the Edwardian and late Art Nouveau period.

Condition:
Very good, with age-related wear commensurate with an Edwardian piece. Both aquamarines remain securely set; the central stone is bright and free from notable surface blemishes. The drop aquamarine shows a visible abrasion, facet wear to the lower left though it retains strong colour and good transparency when worn. All seed pearls are present with an even, soft lustre. Goldwork shows light surface wear appropriate for the age. Hallmarks remain clear and legible.
