A vintage neck ring in 18 karat gold with rose quartz, moonstone and sculptural gold wirework. The gold neck ring is formed in a softly tapered drop shape that gives the piece a clear, sculptural line.
The pendant combines a large plaque of rose quartz in a soft, cloudy pink tone with an oval moonstone cabochon at the centre, framed in gold. Below, fine gold wires are gathered into an open heart-like form with intertwined strands, creating contrast against the clean geometry of the stone setting. The neck ring closes with an integrated hook-and-pin fastening, discreetly built into the design.
The pale rose quartz, smoky moonstone and warm gold tones give the piece depth without feeling overly ornate. The kind of necklace that naturally becomes the centre of attention — striking against a simple dress or an open neckline.
