About the Item
Antique, American Civil War era, yellow gold pendant/brooch with stylized leaf motifs that appear to open up revealing at the center a cluster of natural vivid pink/red Almandine garnets. Both round and oval cut, these stones are set in classic mid-nineteenth century prongs. Suspending from the top portion is a hanging matching piece also with the foliage motif and matching garnets. Totally, there are 11 round and oval garnets all original and all well matched. The pendant/brooch is all original, including the early 'c' type clasp.
This pendant hangs from an 14K, .585 vintage chain, likely made at a later date than the pendant, is 22 inches in length. This chain is marked 14K, .585.
This large colorful and unusual pendant/brooch is 3.25 inches in length. There is a slight indentation on the verso, at the bottom, please see the photograph. This slight indentation cannot be seen from the front.
Please note our model is a medium to large size.
All items sold are accompanied by a detailed description with photographs, as well as all original gemological documentation, if specified in the listing. As always, we guarantee all of pieces to be exactly as represented. Each piece of jewelry arrives in a finely gift-wrapped presentation box.
Over the decades of our stewardship as a small but exemplary purveyor of the jeweler's art, we have strived to offer a fine and authentic selection, in excellent condition, of collectible jewels from all highly sought time periods at competitive prices and even lower prices, if possible.

View AllAntique Serpent & Heart Necklace with fancy cut Garnet & Diamond Eyes, c. 1870
Located in Aspen, CO
Antique Necklace hand made in 18K yellow gold with a serpent and heart motif, the heart and serpent have fancy cut red garnets and the serpent's eyes and nose are rose cut diamonds.
This necklace is in fine condition, 16.25 inches long with the hanging section of the serpent and heart is 1.5 inches. The weight is 30.6 grams. Please note: Our model in the photographs has a medium to large necklace size and hand size. This antique necklace bears no marks. We have performed an acid test to confirm its gold purity as being 18K (.750).
When in the late 1830's Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (in Germany) proposed to his cousin Queen Victoria with a ring in the form of a snake, he soon became Prince Consort and Victorians soon came to consider serpent motif jewels to be symbols of eternal love.
And, when Albert died in 1860, Victoria, as if to demonstrate her eternal commitment, entered a period of mourning and formal remembrance that lasted for the rest of her life, thereby publicly showing her love decades after Albert's death.
