Indian-inspired Convertible Diamond Necklace and Pendant Earrings

Creator: Van Cleef & Arpels
Offered by: Macklowe Gallery, Ltd

Description
Designed in the 1960s, this convertible 18K gold and diamond suite by Van Cleef & Arpels comprises a pendant necklace and day/night earrings. The 18K gold ropework necklace with detachable pendant is designed as a single dividing to double-stranded diamond rivière, sweeping to a delicate point in the center, and suspending a detachable leaf-form pendant with a flexible fringe, set throughout with round brilliant-cut diamonds. The ensuite 18K gold ropework and diamond day/night pendant earrings are each designed as an oval top suspending flexibly-mounted detachable leaf-form pendants. Beautifully-made, softly flexible, and versatile, this opulent Van Cleef & Arpels suite derives inspiration from the forms and sacred materials of India, where precious gems, gold and spirituality have synthesized to create thousands of years of jewelry art.
