Antique Edwardian Platinum / Gold Old Diamond Bow Ribbon Dangle Pendant Necklace

A beautiful little piece of Edwardian romance. Delicate, wonderfully feminine and full of the exquisite craftsmanship that makes antique jewellery so special. Dating to the early 1900s, this enchanting Edwardian diamond bow necklace captures the elegance of the Belle Époque era. The finely crafted platinum ribbon is adorned with old rose and European cut diamonds, with delicate milgrain detailing adding texture and old-world charm. The bow has long held a special place in antique jewellery, traditionally associated with love, affection and the bonds that tie us together. Particularly fashionable during the Edwardian era, ribbon motifs were transformed into intricate creations of platinum and diamonds, capturing the softness and movement of fabric in precious materials. Suspended beneath the bow are two graceful diamond-set drops, each finished with a beautiful old European cut diamond. These lovely articulated strands move gently as the necklace is worn, catching the light with that distinctive sparkle only old-cut diamonds possess. Crafted in platinum with a gold-backed pendant and featuring 24 natural old-cut diamonds, this charming antique is completed by a delicate 17-inch platinum chain. Over a century old, wonderfully romantic and rich in sentiment - a beautiful reminder of an era when jewellery was made to be treasured for generations.
