The center is a five-petal flower in white gold with a diamond in each petal, all bead set to add just a little bit of sparkle. Branching out from behind the flower are yellow gold torpedo-like shapes that make for a beautiful organic flower form. The pendant has a nice weight to it that feels good to wear. It is suspended from a 14 3/4” chain. The shorter chain lends itself to a smaller neck, and is perfect layered as the top necklace in a stack. The pendant has nice detailing—each diamond is held in a delicately carved out setting—and has exquisite craftsmanship. It is a great, classic 1950’s piece of jewelry.

The necklace contains five natural single cut diamonds that measure 1.5 mm each.

The pendant measures 3/4” across. The chain is 14 3/4” long and 1.25 mm thick. The necklace weighs 5.6 grams. Marked on the clasp and the final jump ring with the eagle’s head for France, as well as a maker’s mark. See less
