Victorian Carved Agate and 0.40ctw Diamond Shell Pendant

About the Item

A darling shell pendant from the Victorian (ca1880s) era! Grey agate has been carefully carved and polished into a shell. A single Old Mine Cushion Cut diamond weighing approximately 0.40ctw represents a pearl, resting within a prong setting riveted through the shell. A 14kt yellow gold backing cradles the back of the shell, the remnants of a pin setting hand-marked with an underlined "16". A simple bail rests at the top of this setting, and the shell is ready to be attached to a favorite chain! This pendant would be a perfect addition to any Victorian collection. The shell measures 15/16" excluding the bail. It is approximately 11/16" wide and 5/16" deep.

Victorian Garnet and Diamond Pendant
Located in London, GB
A Victorian garnet and diamond pendant, the old brilliant-cut diamond set star to the centre of a round cabochon-cut garnet, within a frame of entwined gold surmounted from a twisted wire pendant loop, the pendant measuring approximately 3.8 x 2.7cm, suspended from a gold snake chain measuring approximately 43cm in length and 0.3cm in width, circa 1870, gross weight 39.6 grams.
