How a necklace set is made

The piece in detail

On a white display bust in front of a softly blurred grey room: a half-round fan of long red marquise stones around an oval centre, fringed with red bead drops on gold, on a chain of gold beads and three-stone links. The earrings hang from fine gold wires, each a smaller fan below a three-stone stud and a swag of gold chain.

What is worked into it

The pendant is a half-round fan. An oval red stone sits at the top centre, and eight long pointed red stones spread from it like the rays of half a star, with small square red stones between them. Along the lower edge hang eleven red bead drops, each capped and tipped in gold.

The chain is gold-finished silver beads at the back, then three links on each side, each a small bud of three red stones, and a fine gold chain down to the fan.

The earrings are the fan in small, with five drops each, hung from a three-stone stud on a swag of fine chain.

Occasion & styling

For a wedding or an evening function, with a saree or a long dress. The three-stone links run down either side of the neck to the fan, so it wants an open or a scooped neckline rather than a high one.

The earrings repeat the fan, so nothing else is needed at the throat.

The object

Half star is the maker's own name for this form; no older name for it has been found.

Care

  • Store it flat in a soft pouch or a lined box, so the drops lie straight, away from damp and direct sun.
  • Put on perfume, cream and hairspray first and let them dry, and take the set off to bathe, swim, exercise or sleep.
  • Wipe it with a soft dry cloth only: no jewellery dip, no ultrasonic cleaner, nothing abrasive, because the gold is a thin layer over silver.
  • Keep it away from heat, a hairdryer or a car left in the sun, because the fan is filled with lac, which softens at 65 to 70 °C.
  • Handle the stones and the drops gently and keep them from catching on cloth.
