Dating to the last quarter of the 19th century, this exquisite piece fits neatly into the Victorian era. Finely made in the Etruscan Revival manner with exceptional wire work and granulation detailing. This gorgeous pendant is set with a central garnet cabochon, highlighted with a pearl starburst. The garnet is a rich berry hue and glows beautifully in the light. The reverse of the locket has a glazed locket compartment, perfect for housing special keepsakes. Please note the box and chain shown are for demonstration purposes. A very pretty and aesthetic piece of antique English 18ct gold jewellery.
