About the Item
A perfect choice for lovers of history, literature, and fine jewelry, this pendant offers a wearable celebration of art and intellect. This remarkable antique moonstone intaglio features the iconic visage of William Shakespeare, its soft, billowing glow capturing the timeless depth and mystery of his literary genius. The intaglio is perfectly presented in an 18 karat yellow gold frame.
With a Mohs hardness of only 6 to 6.5, it is softer and more fragile than traditional cameo materials like agate or onyx, making it susceptible to chipping and scratching. The stone’s perfect cleavage further complicates detailed carving, as even the slightest pressure can lead to cracks or splits, demanding a high level of skill and precision from the artisans who worked with it.
Weight: 8 grams
Measurements: 1 1/4" (not including bail) x 15/16" wide
Notes: chain is for photography purposes only, light surface scratches to the back of the intaglio
