Straits Antique Diamond Pendant Brooch 18k

Antique Diamond Pendant Brooch

Antique Straits Chinese brooch pendant set with diamonds in 18k.

This is a handmade piece made in this region in the middle of last century.

By that time the pendants had grown bigger from their Edwardian counterparts, to a size comparable to localised Straits ‘kerosang’ brooches (typically bigger than Western brooches).

Hence many Straits full cut diamond jewelry (as opposed to ‘intan’ or rose cut jewelry) fuse both the pendant and brooch to wear as one.

The bail in the pendant allows you to fold and hide to the back when worn as a brooch.

The underside gold work sets up the cluster to wear in a dimensional way that is not flat, whether as a brooch or pendant.

These lace-like diamond jewelry are old-fashioned with rich flavour and will pair elegantly with equally antique or semi/ornate jewels.

All diamonds are clean and weigh 2.6ctw in all.

The brooch pendant measures 45mm by 36mm.
