Cartier 18K Yellow Gold "Gentiane" 5 Row Rice Link Choker Necklace
Cartier 18K Yellow Gold "Gentiane" 5 Row Rice Link Choker Necklace
This truly iconic Cartier five row Gentiane, colloquially referred to as " Rice Link", 18K yellow gold choker length necklace is a greatly admired Cartier design. No longer produced, and still very much sought after. It is only available in the vintage marketplace. Produced for the venerated house by master goldsmiths in Italy, this lovely and well known model is not only exciting to behold, but is made to the highest quality standards. Having a width of 13/16 inches, this is the widest offering from the rice link collection. Measures 15 inches long, which means this choker fits a small neck size. The reverse side of the clasp is stamped Cartier in characteristic script lettering, a 750 stamp (designating 18K gold), and Cartier's unique serial number. Adding further surety to the very secure plunger clasp is a figure eight flip safety catch. Gross weight 77.60 grams.
Note: Sold separately is the matching Cartier 5 row rice link bracelet which is shown in the last two photos of this listing together with the necklace. Please refer to item #LU12345678
