A jewel of provenance and ingenuity, this necklace dates to the 1950s and is crafted in gold and platinum, bearing French marks and a maker's mark. Pear-shaped and baguette-cut diamonds are combined to balance soft brilliance with crisp, architectural line, a hallmark of mid-century design at its most accomplished. Its great cleverness lies in its versatility: the necklace converts into two bracelets, offering several distinct ways to wear a single important acquisition. The old craftsmanship and documented marks lend the piece a heritage that contemporary jewels cannot replicate. Diamond colour, clarity and cut grading are available on request, with certification provided for serious enquiries. A convertible piece of this period and quality is both a wearable jewel and a collectible of enduring value, prized for its provenance and held across generations. To examine the piece in person or to receive its full specification, we invite you to a private appointment in our Negotiation Room.
