Impeccably sourced, rare vintage jewelry
opal, diamond, ruby horseshoe and 14k gold necklace
The Story
A killer combo of opal, rubies, and diamonds in this vintage horseshoe necklace. Made in 14k yellow gold, the horseshoe is substantial in size as it measures just over an inch in height and about 0.71 inches in width.
At the top of the horseshoe, a long oval-shaped opal, about 8 mm x 4 mm, is set horizontally. On both sides of the opal are two diamonds, each about 0.12 carats and 0.10 carats, and two rubies set alternately. The total diamond weight in the horseshoe is approximately 0.45 carats. We love the pops of pinkish-red from the rubies and flashes of color in the opal that break up the sparkly diamonds.
It hangs on a new F&B 18-inch 14k yellow gold chain. Wear this lucky pendant by itself or layered with your other favorite necklaces.
