Green White Violet... GWV... Give Women Votes. A secret message acrostically encoded within the choice of stones set into this attractive antique pendant; a hidden expression of allegiance with the Suffragette movement. The design and craftsmanship are both exceptional, with swirling foliate/ribbon-like openwork studded with pearls, and accented with peridot and almandine garnet. Crafted in 9 karat gold throughout and offered on a fine, period 9k gold chain with four twisted bar links.
