Germany, circa 2000 18k yellow gold (750/-), tested. Circa 200 brilliant-cut diamonds, altogether circa 9 carats, W-TCR (H-I), VS. 31 pink ruby cabochons, altogether circa 2 carats. Inner circumference: circa 11.5 cm. Circa 132 g. The necklace is formed of twenty-nine flower-shaped elements, each centrally set with a ruby. The flowers are separated by bar-shaped links, twelve of which are set with diamonds. The flowers and bars are threaded onto hoop. Either end of the hoop is finished with a circular link, pavé-set with diamonds. It is an exquisite example of hand craftsmanship. The necklace has hardly been worn and is therefore in as new condition. Report: A. u. W. Omankowsky, Inh. Sven Heinlein, Berlin, 13.11.2019.
