An Elsa Peretti pendant necklace with a freeform cabochon of natural amber in a warm orange-red hue, bezel-set in 18K yellow gold. Produced for approximately one year before being discontinued, this amber pendant surfaces very infrequently on the secondary market. The stone sits in a gold bezel with small jump rings on either side connecting it to the fine 1.6mm cable chain. All hallmarks are present and clear.
Elsa Peretti began her collaboration with Tiffany & Co. in 1974, and her work remains among the most collected in the house's history. — Her designs are defined by organic, body-conscious forms that blur the line between jewelry and sculpture, and the use of natural amber — itself a material with millions of years of history — is characteristic of her sensitivity to the natural world.
Condition Very Good. Amber is a natural, organic material and some degree of surface variation is inherent — small pits, light crazing, and minor surface irregularities are characteristic of the stone as it ages, and a sign of it's authenticity, rather than signs of damage, and may well have been embraced as part of Peretti's intention to work with amber in its most natural state. The gold chain and setting are intact and in excellent good condition. Please refer to images and video for full reference.
