Exquisite 1950s Multi-Gemstone & Diamond Pendant Brooch in 18K Gold

1950s Multi-Gemstone & Diamond 18K Gold Pendant Brooch

A masterpiece of mid-century craftsmanship, this 1950s convertible pendant brooch captures the essence of refined artistry. Meticulously fashioned in 18K yellow gold, the piece displays a radiant array of emerald-cut gemstones — amethyst, citrine, garnet, tourmaline, aquamarine, and others — accentuated by brilliant-cut diamonds nestled among sculpted floral motifs.

The reverse reveals an ingeniously concealed hinge, allowing the jewel to be worn both as a brooch or a pendant. The curved brooch mechanism is exceptionally well-engineered, ensuring perfect balance when worn — a subtle hallmark of superior craftsmanship.
Despite its age of over seven decades, this jewel remains in remarkable condition, its gold surface glowing with the warmth of time and the care of its creation.

A rare, vibrant treasure — bold yet elegant — embodying the sophistication and ingenuity of 1950s jewelry design.
