A striking vintage pendant crafted in 14K yellow gold, featuring a classic cluster of rose-cut Bohemian pyrope garnets. The deep crimson garnets are arranged in the traditional floral cluster style that made Bohemian jewelry famous, creating exceptional sparkle and rich color.
While Bohemian garnet jewelry is most commonly found in silver or silver-gilt settings, this example is crafted in solid 14K gold, making it a less common and highly desirable variation. The pendant is stamped 585 for 14K gold and bears both the Czech state assay “goose head” hallmark and a maker’s mark believed to be that of Granát Turnov, the renowned Czech cooperative with exclusive rights to mine genuine Bohemian pyrope garnets.
A beautiful collector’s piece celebrating the rich tradition of Czech gemstone craftsmanship.
