Description
Large dragonfly Belle Époque in yellow gold 18k (750 thousandths) and silver with wings paved with rose-cut diamonds and chips of faceted diamonds. Eyes and antennas ending with diamond chips. The body is a succession of green beryls of very beautiful purity and different sizes, and a beryl on one of the wings. These gems have tubular two-phase inclusions that resemble those found in an Afghan origin. On the other hand, the emerald (beryl of a more saturated green) clearly shows multiphase inclusions found mainly in South America (jagged type). Pink sapphires, blue sapphires and rubies have crystalline inclusions indicating a natural character and nice crossings of veils of very fine rutile needles seem to show an absence of heating (not tested in the laboratory). A semi-round pearl (probably cultured, not tested) illuminates the whole. The quality of the colored stones on this jewel naturally causes an intensity of tones uncommon. Scratches and small dents. Dimensions : 6,2 x 7,6 cm. Gross weight : 28,9 g.
