The Marceau necklace in yellow gold and green sapphire

Inspired by vintage jewellery, the Marceau necklace revives a timeless elegance that is rediscovered with pleasure. Its yellow gold design, both delicate and refined, captivates with soft lines and subtle curves.

Resting at the hollow of the neckline, it naturally illuminates the silhouette and stands out as a poetic, radiant and characterful creation. A truly exceptional piece with irresistible charm.

The story behind the piece

Classic and timeless, the pear cut is above all distinguished by its natural romantic appeal. It combines the brilliance of the round cut with the elongated finesse of the marquise cut, creating a harmonious and delicate silhouette.

First imagined in 1476 by Flemish cutter Lodewyk van Berquem under the name “briolette”, it originally featured facets covering the entire stone. It was only in the early 20th century, around 1900, that the pear shape took the form we know today. Renowned for its softness and femininity, it remains one of the most elegant and poetic cuts in jewellery.

The jeweller’s word

The Marceau necklace delicately reveals a drop of light that settles elegantly at the hollow of the neck. It adorns the neckline with its intense and refined brilliance.

A truly magnetic and captivating jewel, it highlights a pear-cut green sapphire, enhanced by a yellow gold setting and surrounded by sparkling diamonds. Entirely handcrafted, the Marceau necklace embodies precious authenticity and exceptional craftsmanship.
