Unusual vintage 18ct gold sapphire heart and diamond necklace. Seven heart-cut sapphires hang in a graduated line at the centre of this unusual and charming 18ct gold necklace, each one a deep, rich blue. Heart-cut sapphires are not something you come across often — the cut is technically demanding and less commonly used.
Between each sapphire heart, small diamonds — approximately 0.3 carats in total — are set on fine gold links, providing flashes of white brilliance that lift and separate the sapphires without competing with them. The overall effect is delicate but distinctive. The date stamp of 1980 places it firmly in an era that wasn't afraid of an unusual brief, and the craftsmanship here reflects that confidence.
The necklace sits on a fine 18ct yellow gold chain of 16 inches — a collarbone length that shows the sapphire fringe exactly where it deserves to be seen. Stamped 750 throughout to confirm 18ct gold.
Store Location: Wallingford
Gemstones: Sapphires approximately 2.6ct, diamonds approximately 0.3ct total.
Hallmarks: Stamped 750 for 18ct gold and 1980 date stamp.
Measurements: Necklace is 16'“ long.
