18 Karat Turquoise Blue Sapphire Diamond Necklace
1st Dibs Collection
Available Now
Crafted in rich 18 karat yellow gold, this exceptional necklace captures the elegance of the mid-1930s—a moment when the bold geometry of Art Deco began to soften into more fluid, expressive forms.
Measuring seventeen inches in length and weighing an impressive 103.32 grams, the piece drapes with a luxurious presence, its substantial weight a testament to both craftsmanship and enduring quality.
A continuous line of vivid turquoise cabochons—twenty-three in total, graduating from 10mm to 6mm—creates a bold yet harmonious rhythm around the neck. Each stone is encircled by deep blue sapphires, forming delicate halo settings that enhance the turquoise’s natural greenish-blue color. The stones display organic inclusions and subtle variations, giving the piece a sense of authenticity and individuality.
At the center, the necklace blossoms into an ornate focal point. Sapphire and diamond florets introduce a soft, floral elegance, leading the eye downward to a pear-shaped turquoise drop that moves gently with the wearer. Three round brilliant-cut diamonds, totaling approximately 0.85 carats, add a refined sparkle, contrasting beautifully with the rich saturation of the surrounding gemstones.
Handcrafted and thoughtfully designed, the necklace is finished with a concealed clasp and safety, preserving the seamless flow of its silhouette. Dating to circa 1935 and in good condition, this piece reflects a transitional moment in design—where structure meets softness—resulting in a necklace that is both timeless and distinctly expressive.
