A luxurious solid 18K gold pendant/brooch hand set with exceptional quality fine white diamonds, earth mined rubies, stunning emeralds and vivid dark blue natural sapphires.
This gorgeous estate piece dates to the 1980s and is in perfect condition. It can be worn as either a pendant or a pin depending on the mood you find yourself in and your outfit. The design of this opulent pin is stylized and geometric making it a timeless piece of fine luxury jewelry.
Dating to the 1980s it does have design elements inspired by the deco period. The high deco era circa 1940 was an enormous stylistic influence in the 1980s both with fine jewelry and also with fashion.

I love how versatile this piece is and how many things it goes with. This arrangement and choice of colors and precious gems looks astonishing with a little black cocktail dress or a suit. It goes with any bold color beautifully. The sparkly is gorgeous in person, it's pure luxury.
On the reverse of the brooch it has two pins so it sits perfectly balanced. These two pins provide more security than a single pin. We often find that luxury brooches are designed with the double pin for safe wear and also because they sit so beautifully on.
The vibrant quality of the precious gems and the gorgeous diamonds is as luxurious as it gets.

The photos form part of the description. Like all colored stones there is a color variation that occurs in different lighting conditions both inside but also outside, even the time of day can make the color of a stone appear a little different. We do our best to show colors as we see them. Color perception is highly individual and some people can perceive more colors than others, also colors can appear somewhat different on different screens and devices due to variations in screen hardware and device display settings.
