This magnificent necklace, which came to us from the estate of a Hamburg ship-owning family, has a cool yet warm effect. Eighteen golden-yellow and just as many sky-blue sapphires are set in frames of high-carat gold and are connected by almond-shaped links in which a total of 48 diamonds sparkle. 34 carats of fine natural sapphires are brought together in a gentle gradient in this necklace. The term sapphire is derived from the Greek word "sappheiros" and actually means "blue stone". Just like the less common ruby, the sapphire is one of the two varieties of the mineral corundum. While only blue corundum used to be referred to as sapphire, we now know that the natural colour palette of this high-quality gemstone also includes yellow, orange, pink, violet, brown and green specimens as well as a number of mixed colours. It is a necklace from around 1990, for which we can also offer a matching bracelet and ring, also set with yellow and blue sapphires. We have commissioned an appraisal to confirm the authenticity of the gemstones used here. A necklace like a clear day in late summer, radiantly beautiful and understatedly luxurious.

Particularly radiant colors that the sapphire can produce other than blue are sought after for their rarity and reach top prices at international auctions.
