Art Deco peridot and pearl negligee necklace
A negligee necklace is a design that has two drop sections of different lengths resulting in such a unique design that is sure to always be admired each time that it is worn.
Dating from the 1920’s, this peridot and pearl necklace was made in 9 carat gold and set with one central peridot that measures 0.70 carats that is surrounded by four seed pearls in that delightful setting, and one at the bottom of each drop that come together to total 0.60 carats.
With a further pearl set on each drop, the longest drop section measures 5cm in length, and from end to end, the necklace measures 41cm in length.
Perfect to wear with that summer dress, it will be just as perfect to wear with that elegant outfit in the evening and always look so graceful around the neck.

What is a negligee necklace?
A negligee necklace is one that has two vertical drop sections of different lengths. This design was very popular in the Art Deco era of the 1920’s to the 1940’s. Often negligee pendants will be found in gold or platinum, or a combination of both, and are often set with gemstones. Diamonds were a popular choice in an Art Deco negligee necklace, as was pearls.
When was the Art Deco era?
The Art Deco era is generally regarded as being from 1920 to 1940. While some literature will say it started from the end of World War One, and finished in the early 1940’s, this is really splitting hairs, and doesn’t make much difference.
What is the difference between vintage jewellery and antique jewellery?
Vintage jewellery is one that is over twenty years old, but less than one hundred. Antiques on the other hand, must be over one hundred years old to be considered as an antique.
