Victorian Dendritic Agate Yellow Gold Pendant c.1860s

Description

A captivating and elegant Victorian pendant; the dendritic agate is hand carved into a facetted drop with cabochon top and is a moody translucent white colour, naturally mottled with dendritic spots. All set in a buttery 9ct yellow gold setting.

This was most likely one of a pair of earrings and, when the other has been lost, this beauty has been made wearable again with the addition of a later gold bale.

A really charming, and very wearable piece with a lot of character; it looks great on its own or layered with other pieces.

SIZE: 5.5cm including bale. Weighs 2.2grams.

CONDITION: Great antique condition; no chips or cracks to the stones. Setting is secure. Bale is nice solid size and sympathetic to the piece. Chain for illustration only.
