An Edwardian pendant featuring a pear-shaped moonstone surrounded by deep blue Montana sapphires, suspended from two additional sapphires above, with the top stone set within a fine knife-edged circle. The subtle translucence of the moonstone contrasts beautifully with the rich, velvety tones of the sapphires, creating a refined interplay of colour and light.
Moonstones were prized during the late Edwardian period for their soft, ethereal glow, often paired with coloured gemstones to enhance their luminosity. Montana sapphires, celebrated for their intense cornflower blue and remarkable clarity, remain highly valued by collectors today, making them a distinctive and sought-after choice for framing central stones in Edwardian jewellery.
Mounted in platinum.
English, circa 1915.
