Fiery, Luminous.

We discovered this rare beauty in Paris — chic, streamlined, casting a magical glow. Of course, we fell in love immediately. A rivière of high karat gold and luminous foiled garnets — so desirable and wearable. Perpignan garnet jewelry are distinctive for their particular rose cuts and collets with etched crimp lines and gold domed backs. Traditionally, these jewels were passed down in families, from mother to daughter over generations.

In this heirloom-quality hand-crafted rivière, 31 glorious garnets shimmer softly, reflecting light onto its wearer. Beyond its beauty, this rivière just feels marvelous on the body — smooth and substantial. Wear solo, or layer with other rivières or chains for your own individual statement.

The clasp is an integrated box clasp, with a later retrofitted figure 8 safety latch.

Marked with French eagle’s head and rhino’s head on the tongue of the box clasp and with maker’s mark.

18k gold, garnet.

Dimensions and weight:

● 17.75 inches/45cm long

● 10.5 mm wide

● Garnets in their settings taper from 14 mm long x 10.5 mm wide to 7.5 mm long x 5.5 mm wide

● 33.5 grams

Period: Late 19th/ Early 20th century
