This stunning vintage emerald pendant has been crafted in 18ct yellow gold.
The articulated drop displays a large feature pear-shaped 14.80ct Colombian emerald bead to the nadir.
The impressive emerald is surmounted with an impressive pearl, completing the simplistic design.
The emerald pendant is suspended from an 18" 18ct yellow gold chain via an incorporated ring loop; the chain secures to the reverse with a conventional spring-loaded bolt ring fastening.
The emerald pendant has been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 18ct gold.
This vintage pendant is supplied with an IDGL gemstone grading report card, in addition to a GIA (Gemmological Institute of America) Grading Certificate for the emerald*.
A GIA-certified vintage emerald pendant is a distinguished gift for milestones, including 20th and 35th anniversaries, May birthdays, engagements, graduations, and career achievements. Its timeless elegance also makes it a cherished personal keepsake.
"Rather than regarding inclusions in coloured stones as harmful, in small sizes and numbers that do not in any way detract from their beauty, they should be regarded as adding to desirability, for they provide identifying characteristics."

NOTE: * The GIA certificate accredited the emerald originating in Colombia (Colombian) and verifies that the gemstone shows significant clarity enhancement.
