A sumptuous Portuguese Georgian girandole pendant, c.1760, ablaze with glowing Amber and a vivid Emerald accent. Crafted in rich 18ct Gold, the design centres a round Amber cabochon over a graceful bow and foliate openwork, cascading to three articulated pear-shaped Amber drops. The scalloped closed-back bezels and fluid movement are quintessentially Georgian, creating a romantic chandelier silhouette that dances with every step.

A bright 5mm Emerald punctuates the ribboned cartouche, its verdant hue a striking counterpoint to the warm honey-to-deep-orange Ambers. Bearing Portuguese crown stamps to the reverse, this statement jewel encapsulates 18th-century elegance with beautiful texture, patina and presence.
