ART DECO DIAMOND RIVIERE NECKLACE, CIRCA 1930
Designed as a graduating line of collet-set old European-cut diamonds with millegrain detailing to a single-cut diamond clasp, the diamonds together weighing approximately 13.48 carats, mounted in platinum, inner circumference 375mm, gross weight approximately 26.9 grams.

Accompanied by a Hardy Brothers box.

Estimate $15,000 - $20,000

Sold for $15,000

In our opinion, the diamonds are bright and lively ranging in colour from mainly H to J colour, a few K-N stones, and mainly VS - SI clarity, with a few pique stones, as gauged and graded within the limitations of the cutting style and the mounting.



The mounting displays scratches, scuffs, and some twist to links commensurate with age and wear. Clasp secure.

The necklace is of very good workmanship with signs of wear consistent with age and use, not noticeable when worn.

Overall condition is very good considering its period.
