Liberty Jessie King Paste & Pearl Drop Necklace, c. 1900

A whisper of fairy tale, a trace of moonlight captured in silver. This exquisite Liberty & Co. necklace, attributed to the celebrated illustrator and designer Jessie M. King, embodies the dreamlike delicacy of the Edwardian era. Graceful, looping silverwork unfurls like petals, each floral motif kissed with a soft pink paste stone at its heart. A luminous pearl drop dangles from the central bloom, an elegant exclamation point to this lyrical design. Worn close to the throat, it drapes like a garland of enchanted blossoms, conjuring images of Pre-Raphaelite muses and ethereal heroines.

Handcrafted in silver around 1900, this necklace measures 15.25 inches in length, with a dramatic drop motif extending approximately 3.75 inches. The widest span, from the uppermost floral elements, reaches 4 inches across, while the central flower measures 39 mm tall by 30 mm wide. The piece is hallmarked "PATENT" alongside a worn numerical mark, possibly reading 75-0 or 75-6. Weighing 11 grams, it is an exquisitely light and wearable testament to Liberty’s mastery of feminine, nature-inspired design.

Few pieces capture the essence of an era so completely. With its airy, lace-like silverwork and soft glow of pink and pearl, this necklace feels plucked from a dream—one you may never want to wake from.
