Edwardian Platinum Lyre Shaped Pendant on Chain set with a Green Sapphire & Diamonds

320T
240 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A very unusual pendant that was made in the Edwardian period, circa 1910.  It is lyre shaped. The lyre is an ancient harp like instrument, often seen as an attribute of Apollo in Classical antiquity.  Apollo was the Greek and Roman god of sunlight, prophecy, music, and poetry.  Below the lyre is a claw set wonderful green sapphire.  The platinum chain has long and round links that were typical of the Edwardian period.  What a lovely pendant to give to someone who is involved with the arts.

Ollys Pick

This is such an unusual piece of jewellery especially set with the green sapphire.
