Description
One of the earliest femme fatales to have ever been recorded, Lucrezia Borgia was the daughter of Rodrigo Borgia, the powerful Renaissance Valencian who later became Pope Alexander VI. Her family later came to epitomise the ruthless Machiavellian politics and sexual corruption alleged to be characteristic of the Renaissance Papacy. Lucrezia herself was cast as a femme fatale, a role she has been portrayed as, in numerous artworks, novels and films.

In fact, it is even rumoured that Lucrezia was in possession of a hollow ring she used frequently to poison drinks. I wouldn't want to get on her bad side.

My necklace is a study in femme fatale disarray with lavish accents of theatrical pageantry thrown in for good measure. Rather like my muse.

AN HEIRLOOM Brazilian Amethyst Focal - superbly, flawless, magnificently finished and voluptuous at 40mm, 50 Carats - instantly captivates. She stands proud amidst sensual curtains of Mystic Purple Amethyst, Black Spinel, Rhodolite Garnet, petite Amethyst and Mystic Labradorite with schiller so strong you could spot the shine from a mile away.

These waterfalls of gems cascade artfully from drapes and swages of chains with Labradorites + Amethyst *bridges* which have been tenderly woven together with yet more clusters of Rondelles of Black Spinel as well as Mystic Labradorite. And that single spot of colour? A Blood Red African Ruby Rondelle.

This piece is a true COLLECTIBLE.

Bejewelled in the most sublime fashion possible, Portrait Of Lucrezia Borgia measures a length of 20.5", this being adjustable up to 22.25". Her magnificent pendant portion is a luscious 4.75".
