An exquisite antique Georgian-era garnet pendant, meticulously crafted in 18K yellow gold. The pendant features a deep wine-red hued oval faceted garnet, bezel-set with elegant precision.
The central garnet stone is adorned with four sparkling rose-cut diamonds positioned in graceful symmetry and is set on top of a decorative border of intricate metalwork adding dimension to the design.
The frame on the back of the pendant displays carefully textured detailing, evidence of hand-finishing and meticulous craftsmanship. Beneath the garnet lies a foiled close backing, a sophisticated Georgian technique that reflects light back through the stone, intensifying its colour saturation and creating a jewel-like depth and radiance.
