Antique enamel suffragette necklace

$9,300.00

Quite often antique jewellery can have a meaning behind it that isn’t often seen , even though it is right there in front of you, and here we have an amazing antique suffragette necklace from the early 1900’s.

The suffragette movement started in the late 1800’s, and was not only so important in helping women get equal rights, but helped cement in history the names of people such as Millicent Fawcet and Emmeline Pankhurst, who were both so important in the movement, making suffragette jewellery not only so beautiful, but so historically important.

Suffragette jewellery is recognisable by having three main colours: green, white and violet, and here in this necklace it is set with two amethysts for the purple, pearls for the white and enamel for the green. Along with this, there are also four rose cut diamonds to add to the grace and elegance of the necklace.

Made in 15 carat gold in the early 1900’s, from end to end the necklace measures 42cm allowing the main pendant section in the centre to sit perfectly on the neckline where it will be admired from near or far and is sure to become a fantastic and exciting conversation starter.

The two amethysts total 6 carats in weight and are embraced so beautifully by the clusters of pearls and enamel, as well as the beautiful design of the three chains leading to the top amethyst.

This is such a beautiful and historically important necklace, and one that is sure to be admired each and every time that it is worn.
