History, style and aesthetics rule with this natural pearl, turquoise and diamond romantic flower themed and enamelled pendant from Victorian era.

Composed of two elements, here sentiments and emotions have been translated into a beautiful pendant with meaningful gemstones, white enamelled flowers and pearl blossoms and open work details, culminating in a dancing turquoise drop of approx .60 Ct.

The principal element is an oval domed cabochon cut natural turquoise of approx 2.33 Ct, symbolizing “true blue”, faithful love and memories set on a coronet mounting in a sophisticated frame with white enamel and gold dots.
