Victorian 15ct Gold Multi-Gem Harlequin Necklace

172H
240 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

This delicate 15ct gold Victorian Harlequin necklace dates to around 1880. The fine link chain dances with eleven graduated oval cut gemstones, including deep red garnets, muted green and yellow zircons, a lovely violet spinel and a royal blue sapphire, but centering on a bold 2.96 cts colourless topaz, helping the fringe fall neatly about the neck.   The rainbow effect of many colours was associated with the traditional costume of the Harlequin in the Italian Commedia dell’Arte.
