Antique 14K Turquoise Seed Pearl Quadfoil Festoon Necklace JR1473

Elegant antique festoon necklace crafted in 14K yellow gold, featuring a series of ornate quadfoil motifs richly decorated with natural turquoise cabochons and fine seed pearls. Each clover-form element displays delicate beadwork and granulated detailing surrounding the turquoise centers, while tiny seed pearls accent the borders and connectors, creating a refined lace-like appearance typical of late nineteenth to early twentieth century jewelry design. Two elongated decorative links flank the central section and are also set with seed pearls, adding graceful articulation and visual balance. The necklace is completed with a distinctive period chain composed of decorative links and an antique box clasp. The combination of turquoise, pearls, and intricate goldwork gives the piece a strong Victorian–Edwardian character and an elegant presence when worn.
