Georgian Garnet Rivière Graduated Necklace

A Georgian garnet rivière necklace, circa 1820, composed of a graduated series of oval-cut deep red almandine garnets, each set in a closed-back foil-backed collet mount of 18ct gold. The necklace features a double swag design, with a second row of garnets draping elegantly below the first, creating a rich, regal effect typical of early 19th-century jewellery. The garnets display a warm, glowing crimson hue enhanced by the reflective backing.
