Classy Victorian solid 10k Yellow Gold 14.5-inch lavalier-style necklace with a beautiful design and a single .15 carat old cut round-faceted natural White Sapphire.

This wonderful lavalier necklace weighs approximately 2.29 grams and is in excellent condition, especially for its age.

Sapphire, a precious gemstone belonging to the Corundum family, is renowned for its captivating blue hues, though it occurs in a spectrum of colors known as "fancy Sapphires." With a remarkable hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale, second only to Diamond, it exhibits exceptional durability. Traditionally associated with royalty and wisdom, Sapphire has been treasured for centuries. Its deep blue varieties, in particular, are highly prized, making it a classic and timeless gemstone for jewelry.
