Description : Scrolling, tiara shaped surmount of diamonds like a setting or rising sun, with rays of waving ribbons or arms, scrolling up and down in sensuous and serpentine curves, with foliage theme on the sides. A larger diamond is set in the center at the bottom of the surmount, from which a large oval amethyst surrounded by a border of closely set rose cut diamonds in turn suspending a drop with a bow of diamonds, foliage of diamonds and center of oval amethyst. On either side are matching amethyst drops with diamond accents, the whole in a girandole design.

 

The 3 drops of the girandole can be removed. They are attached via long wires and loops. The outer pair of amethysts can be worn as earrings (wires are not present) and the central drop as a pendant. Simple c-clasp.

 

Workmanship, design and aesthetics are outstanding. Amethysts of a lovely purple shade and diamonds are bright and lively.
