Antique Victorian Onyx Cross Pendant with Seed Pearl and Gold Leaves

About the Item

A Victorian onyx cross pendant set with a single seed pearl and adorned with a 14 karat gold floral design. This pendant is a captivating embodiment of the elegance and symbolism of the Victorian era. Crafted during the 19th century, this pendant features a cross-shaped frame meticulously carved from polished black onyx. During part of the the Victorian era from about 1860 to 1880, mourning jewelry was the height of fashion and black was a stylish color. At the center of the cross rests a single luminous seed pearl, delicately set within a bezel of gleaming gold. This pearl, with its iridescent sheen, serves as a focal point, drawing the eye and adding a touch of refinement to the piece. Surrounding the pearl, a meticulously crafted floral design unfolds in intricate detail. Fashioned from radiant gold, the floral motifs evoke the lushness of a Victorian garden, with blossoms and leaves intricately rendered to capture the essence of natural beauty. Each twig and leaf is expertly sculpted or engraved, showcasing the skilled artistry of the era. The combination of the onyx's dark allure, the pearl ethereal glow, and the gold's radiant warmth creates a mesmerizing contrast that enhances the pendant's visual impact. The cross pendant is in good condition. View the photos for the dimensions of the cross in centimeters.
