FEDERICO JIMENEZ- Sophisticated - Elegant - Glamorous-Faceted Prasiolite Gemstones - Pearl Cluster Halo- 16" Sterling Choker Necklace- 10.3 Oz.!
THE STORY:
The story behind this most glamorous necklace is that is at least 25 years old & was kept down at Federico's house in Oaxaca where he lost track of it.. Years later it turned back up by his housekeeper,who then handed it over & has been in his possession, until I purchased it directly from him.. This was never sold, nor worn. Federico also told me if he sold this at today's prices,the price tag would be at least $6500 if not higher.

DESCRIPTION:
If you've never felt like royalty when you put on your jewelry, then this STUNNING Federico necklace might have you feeling like you should be sitting on the throne!!! Like anything with Federico's name attached, it's obvious he didn't fall short by giving us anything less than what screams 'Wow Factor"
This glamorous choker style necklace is designed with an unbelievably rich, top of the line elegance that has along with it, an extremely sophisticated & very feminine aesthetic. It is made with 11 large sparkling gems of faceted Prasiolite (Green Amethyst) & clusters & clusters of little fresh water pearls with an accented closure of black agate..
These 11 cuts sit in a panel style, where the various cuts of Prasiolite are framed with a cluster halo of tiny 4 mm white pearls. The Prasiolite gems have a deep pavilion that almost fills the depth in the bezel, so there are a lot of carats per stone. For it's length, there is a generous amount of both metal & stone so there is some weight to it!
If you look at photos 11,12,13, you will see this has one of Federico's unique closures, where the opening is hidden by one of the pearl cabochons & what you do, is push down on pearl that is apart of the design & it opens. When closed, it becomes a part of the design!
** I do want to mention that because the panels are connected by O-rings, this necklace can actually be made longer by adding additional jump rings in between each panel..This is something however I do not do, but can be done by any reputable jeweler!! **
Perfect for a wedding, high end event, video shoot, Stage Performer or just about anytime you want to impress!
