Joden Girl
Baubles, Bling, and A Collector’s Things
At their peak of popularity, around the turn of the 20th century, lavalier necklaces graced the necklines of ladies of all ages. These charming pieces are comprised of a series of smaller links or swirls with a singular dangling gem at the base (most often this was a pearl).
Delicate and dainty, these late Victorian darlings also often featured small colored gemstones, like this one. Made entirely of 9-karat yellow gold, this little number from Joe’s Special Box is adorned with not one but two round garnets.
A charming botanical theme brings this pendant to life. The outline is accented by three small six-petaled flowers with a tiny seed pearl in the center. Alternating with these blossoms are three pairs of leaves. This foliage is also set with small ivory-colored seed pearls.
Shown on the neck, you can appreciate the ultra feminine vibe of this late 1800’s necklace. At Joden, we have quite a collection of lavaliers with a wide assortment of gems. With so many to choose from, you’re sure to discover your birthstone or the birthstone of someone you love. For January babies or garnet lovers, this particular one is available for just $1,250.oo. Give us a call to make it yours today.
