Stunning Vintage Silver Necklace with Huge Lab-Created Ice-Blue Stone

Look at the SIZE of her - a huge, glittering lab-created stone in the dreamiest ice blue, faceted so deeply she catches light from across the room, set in a silver frame of fine, lace-like filigree. And here is a detail I love: even her back is beautiful, finished in soft hand-hammered silver - the kind of care only the old workshops took.

She is silver through and through, with hallmarks and a maker's mark - you can read Swedish marks yourself in my hallmark encyclopedia: Swedish Hallmarks. The stone is very much part of her story: the old makers loved these flame-grown stones for their perfect, even colour - all the glow, none of the flaws.

She hangs from her silver chain of around 17.25 inches and weighs around 10 grams all together. She is in excellent condition with minor signs of age.
