{"product_id":"1850s-gold-festoon-necklace-with-pearls","title":"Early-Victorian Baroque Pearl Necklace","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"370\"\u003eCirca 1850. This Victorian necklace is composed of articulated 18KT gold floral plaques connected by sweeping curved links, each centered with luminous baroque pearls in raised buttercup-style settings. The arrangement creates a graceful draped silhouette across the neckline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"372\" data-end=\"790\"\u003eThe necklace reflects the romantic naturalism that defined mid-19th-century jewelry design. Each floral element is individually modeled with repoussé-style petals and textured surfaces, creating an effect reminiscent of hand-formed botanical garlands. The softly irregular light-cream baroque pearls enhance the organic quality of the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"792\" data-end=\"1220\"\u003ePieces of this scale and intricacy were designed to make an elegant statement in candlelight, where the dimensional goldwork and glowing pearls would have shimmered with extraordinary warmth. Baroque pearls were especially prized in the 19th century for their individuality and natural beauty, often symbolizing purity, wisdom, and emotional sincerity. This necklace survives as a striking example of Victorian craftsmanship, balancing romantic femininity with richly sculptural design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe necklace measures 16 inches in length and is finished with a box-style clasp. This necklace is nearly 175 years old and in fantastic condition!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAppraised Value:  $18,200\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Isadoras - C","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40651518738493,"sku":"CH3220","price":13800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0279\/9314\/5405\/files\/CH3220-VICTORIAN-GOLD-NECKLACE-WITH-BAROQUE-PEARLS-3.png?v=1779830401","url":"https:\/\/isadoras.com\/products\/1850s-gold-festoon-necklace-with-pearls","provider":"Isadoras Antique Jewelry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
