A frame heavy enough to be worn.
The Square Filigree Memorial Diamond Pendant is a picture frame built as jewelry. The whole outer border is carved in deep acanthus scrollwork — leaves folding over one another in full relief, cut and finished by hand, breaking the outline at the corners so the edge is never a straight line. It is the kind of frame you would find around an oil painting, reproduced at 2.25 inches in solid gold.
Inside the carving, a single row of round diamonds runs the full perimeter of the window, separating the scrollwork from the picture and giving the whole thing a clean inner edge. At 1.55tcw across 88 stones, the diamonds outline rather than cover — the carved frame is the piece, and the stones frame the frame.
The window is glazed and square, set flush inside the diamond border.
The photograph is yours. The image shown in these pictures is only an example of how a photo sits in the setting. Any picture you choose can be fitted instead — send us what you would like set in it and we will size it to the window.
The back is left completely flat and plain, which is deliberate: it gives you an uninterrupted surface for engraving. A name, dates, a message, handwriting, a signature — whatever you want on it. Tell us on the "Custom Work" page and it goes on before the piece ships.
The bail is a hinged two-row pavé post with a 6mm opening.
At 57g in 14K this is a substantial piece, and the weight is in the carved border rather than in a thick plate.
