1.65 ct Opal and 0.68 ct Diamond, 18 ct White Gold Pendant - Vintage Circa 1960

This fine and impressive pendant has been crafted in 18 ct white gold.

The pierced decorated, geometric design frame is ornamented with a feature four claw set 1.65 ct cabochon cut white opal.

The opal is framed by an angular, seven sided halo embellished with eighteen modern brilliant round cut diamonds.

The pendant suspends from a contemporary 18 ct white gold trace chain via an integrated ring loop to the upper border of the design, and secures with a conventional spring loaded bolt ring fastening.

The ring loop is accented with nine pavé set eight-cut diamonds, and is hinged to the reverse.

The pendant has been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 18 ct gold.

This impressive vintage 1960's pendant is supplied with an independent diamond grading report card.

This impressive gemstone pendant is fine quality, set with a white opal displaying a scintillating play of colour.

The very well colour matched, very high colour graded diamonds display a fine white colour and brilliance.

The pendant is a very good gauge of gold and is in excellent condition, with a worn and illegible hallmark to the reverse, in keeping with age.

Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this fine example of vintage opal jewellery.
