The contemporary boldness of this Messika talisman
Maison Messika, founded by Valérie Messika in 2005, disrupted the codes by freeing the diamond from its traditional anchoring. The Lucky Move collection reinvents the classic medallion to make it a true aesthetic signature. This second-hand necklace features at its centre a large disc of natural black onyx cut as a polished plaque, offering an estimated volume of 5.00 carats. Its dark depth contrasts intensely with the warm 750 thousandths rose gold alloy. Reference 10838-PG fully belongs to this vision of assertive and sculptural jewellery.
Architecture and jewellery savoir-faire
The architecture of this setting rests on rigorous geometry. The onyx disc is encircled by a halo of brilliant-cut diamonds held by meticulous bead setting. The total weight of this luminous halo is calibrated at 0.30 carat. The central engineering is revealed through a groove carved directly into the black stone. Inside this space, 3 round diamonds totalling 0.09 carat slide freely on an invisible rail thanks to extremely precise bezel settings. The generous structure ensures a perfect fall on the skin while protecting the precious elements.
Why this second-hand necklace
Acquiring a signed piece pre-owned constitutes an expert and discerning approach. The Lucky Move line requires extreme machining tolerances to guarantee the perfect fluidity of the moving diamonds without scratching the underlying gem. This micrometric precision is heavily reflected in boutique pricing by excellence craftsmanship. This precise model provides access to a significant volume of gold and a highly coveted Parisian signature while avoiding the initial depreciation.
