(Udo Goertz), 585. 1 cabochon-cut chalcedony (25.2 x 14.6 x 10 mm). 1 brilliant-cut diamond, approx. 0.4–0.5 ct (tcr/p). Dimensions: 4 x 3.2 cm. Eyelets. Very good condition. Solidly crafted goldsmith’s pendant with a sculptural, curved design. The large, pale blue shimmering chalcedony cabochon is encased in an open, asymmetrically designed white gold setting and accented by a brilliant-cut diamond set in a bezel above it. The interplay of softly rounded contours, polished gold surfaces, and the chalcedony’s translucent color gives the piece an elegant, contemporary appeal.
