Victorian symbolism involved the use of various motifs to convey hidden meaning and sentiments, including moons and stars, flowers, hearts and even insects. If you are looking for a sentimental historical piece, that may be the one.

Details:

The pendant is a brooch conversion from the Victorian era, late 1800s. It is made of 10k solid gold and natural seed pearls.

Condition:

It is in excellent antique condition. One pearl was missing when I acquired it and my goldsmith replaced it. The bale has also been upgraded: it used to be a loop soldered to the brooch (stiff structure), now there are two loops to enable movement between bale and pendant. Those repairs and upgrades cost hence the price.

The pendant does not come with a chain.

-Pendant width: 25mm / 1"
