This exceptional Arts and Crafts necklace by the esteemed designer Murrle Bennett & Co showcases the refined elegance of late Victorian craftsmanship.
Handmade in 15ct gold, it features a striking egg-shaped turquoise pendant delicately clasped within foliate gold tendrils, crowned by a rose-cut diamond. The pendant is suspended from a series of graceful oblong gold links, interspersed with lustrous natural pearls and three smaller turquoise gems.
This piece perfectly embodies the aesthetic ideals of the Arts and Crafts movement — artistry, natural beauty, and impeccable handwork.
The necklace sits beautifully around the neck, glowing with subtle sophistication and historic charm.
