An exceptional Austro-Hungarian vermeil gold necklace, earrings, 
and bracelet from circa 1890. 
This set is marked with the initials KT, representing Theodor Köchert, 
who led the Köchert House of Jewellers from 1882 to 1916.
The house renowned as kings and emperors jewelers.

The set features an array of high-quality polished natural 
undyed dark red coral cabochons, natural seed pearls, and amethyst pastes. 
The craftsmanship is exquisite, with links composed of multiple tiers 
of intricate lacy filigree adorned with granulation and whip lash motifs.
Each stone is securely set in milgrain bezels, 
with the larger coral cabochons encircled by a halo of wired seed pearls, 
the largest cabochon measuring 10 mm by 8.5 mm. 

The necklace measures 16 1/2 inches in length, 
with a central station that is 2 1/2 inches wide and a drop of 3 1/4 inches.
It consists of two necklace links and three articulated pendant links, 
the largest of which is 36 mm long and 25 mm wide. 
The closure is a slide-in clasp. 

The bracelet is 7 3/4 inches long, featuring five large links and five smaller ones, 
with the largest link measuring 40 mm long and 27 mm wide, 
mirroring the design of the large link in the necklace pendant, 
and also secured with a slide-in clasp.

The tongues of the bracelet and necklace clasps bear 
a dog head stamp with the number 3 and the letter P, 
indicating the Austro-Hungarian mark for 800 silver issued in Pest, 
along with the maker's stamp KT which we identified 
as Theodor Köchert's associated
with this prestigious Köchert jewelry house.
