A diamond necklace with untreated sapphires total weight c. 35 ct, by Chantecler
platinum c. 950, brilliants and octagonal-cut diamonds total weight c. 17.50 ct, the sapphires show no signs of thermal treatment, length c. 41.5 cm, socket fastening, safety fastening white gold 585, signed, 90 g, gemstone report from 2019 and Chantecler certificate enclosed, original case
The island of Capri in the Gulf of Naples has fascinated travellers, artists and creatives for centuries with its pleasant climate, picturesque landscapes and blue sea.
It is said that St. Michel, with the gentle sound of a little bell, brought back a poor shepherd's only lamb, which had been deemed lost. As a result, the bell became a symbol of good fortune and a talisman of Capri.
The ambience of the island and the legend of the bell inspired Pietro Capuano - nicknamed Chantecler - heir to a family of Neapolitan jewelers, to create a bell as a pendant and offer it to an international audience in his boutique since 1950.
Other individual haute joaillerie creations by Chantecler are also clearly influenced by the magic of the ‘Isola Azzurra’. Capri’s unique colours are reflected in the untreated Pailin sapphires, which are reminiscent of the hues of the island’s blue grotto, the ‘Grotta azzurra’.
The shade of Pailin sapphires, which are rare today, varies from light to deep blue, with such a pronounced purity and intensity of colour that it is sometimes difficult to distinguish them from Kashmir sapphires. For this reason, these rare and exquisite blue sapphires from the Cambodian border with Thailand are often valued almost as highly as sapphires from the Kashmir Mountains.
