The marquise cut was reputedly created for the Marquise de Pompadour, mistress of Louis XV, its elongated form said to mirror her famously perfect lips. Platinum, the rarest of all jewellery metals, became the material of choice for the finest Edwardian and Art Deco jewellery for its strength and enduring brilliance.
This necklace brings the two together with exceptional effect. Three and a half carats of marquise-cut diamonds are interspersed along a platinum setting, creating a piece of remarkable luminosity. Made not just for this generation, but for the next.
