18KYG Baccarat Faceted Blue Crystal Link Rivière, 18” - • Weight – 60.3 g • Material – 18 karat yellow gold (Au750 tag, Italian star-PB maker’s mark); gold wire connectors and spring-ring clasp • Gems – octagonal, step-cut Baccarat crystal plaques, each approx. 12 × 12 mm, intense cobalt blue, high transparency, no structural cracks • Dimensions – total length 18”; plaques sit flush for a continuous collar effect • Condition – Excellent Crafted as a modernist rivière, the necklace alternates precision-cut Baccarat crystal tablets with discreet 18K yellow-gold jump-rings, allowing the angular facets to read as an unbroken band of saturated blue. The sizable 60-gram mass gives the piece a substantial drape, while the narrow spring-ring clasp (also stamped “750”) preserves the visual rhythm of the links. Overall construction is clean and articulate - jump-ring joints are laser-welded, the plaques drilled cleanly through the girdle to minimize stress, and the gold hardware shows uniform 18 K assay.
