Victorian Gold Lavalier With Synthetic Ruby & Wing Pearl Drop

A delicate gold frame and foliate flourishes frame a vivid pinkish-red synthetic ruby in this graceful Victorian lavalier. Crafted in 10K yellow gold, the elongated openwork pendant combines slender geometric lines with softly curling ornament, creating an airy setting for its colorful center.

The 3.6 mm synthetic ruby rests within a flower-shaped mount, with a single seed pearl poised above. A lustrous wing pearl drop hangs below a small decorative gold cap, its elongated, organic shape complementing the pendant’s elegant proportions.

Suspended from a 15.5-inch 14K yellow gold sparkle chain, this charming necklace pairs intricate antique goldwork with a bright touch of color and the gentle sheen of pearls.
