[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 344364, member: 2844"]Diamond shapes in themselves are very generic and ancient, can be found just about anywhere and in any period of art history. It is how they are combined with other elements that makes it possible to narrow it down. And then there is Orientalism, of course, highly fashionable during the Victorian era (and other periods). I agree, the clasp isn't recent, none of the components are. It is an old necklace, using even older components that were either made locally or imported.[/QUOTE]
