The jewel presents the typical European jewelry setting of the late nineteenth century, with the central stone mounted and surrounded by small rose-cut diamonds set in silver—a technique widely used in era jewelry to enhance the stones’ luminosity. The lower structure and the shank are made of 18 kt gold, in the traditional gold–silver combination typical of 19th-century jewelry. The mounting is enriched by an elegant pierced work beneath the central stone and by finely shaped shoulders that confer balance and lightness to the design.
