Description

A charming piece, elegant in both proportion and design.

We have our suspicions that this may have begun life (circa 1860) as a pair of earrings, which was subsequently changed to a pendant following the loss of its partner many years ago. This happens all too frequently, and for the majority of earrings it isn't worth the cost involved to alter the remaining one. However this is such a quality item it is no wonder that the unfortunate owner wanted to continue wearing it.

It is typically unmarked gold which has been crafted into delicate cannetille work and frames a lovely Almandine Garnet (a very popular gem at the time.)

It is in good condition, not perfect (hence the price) yet still very wearable. It really is an exquisite little item so we forgive it the odd flaw which exist as testament to its long history.

It measures 2” in length. Chain not included in price.
