Victorian Natural Pearl & Diamond Pendant

Victorian Natural Pearl & Diamond Pendant

$5,000.00


Description

DATE: Victorian, c.1900

Striking antique pendant set with a natural saltwater pearl drop dangling beneath diamond-set angular pendant, reminiscent of a hashtag (tilted onto one corner) - the gaps between the settings forming the four lines. The diamonds are glistening old cuts (a .44ct old Euro centre and eight smaller old miners) totalling around 85 points, and the pearl is certified at 9.9mm by 8.8mm. It's attractive and understated, with simple concealed gold bail to the back and otherwise constructed in silver. A rather modern-looking Victorian piece, likely French circa 1900.
