About the Item

A fabulous hidden key ball pendant from the Victorian (ca1880) era! This stylish piece is made of vibrant 18kt yellow gold and has a three-dimensional spherical shape. The outside of the ball is a smooth surface and is hollow inside. The ball opens to reveal a fold down key that was used to open a jewelry box. A gold ring at the top makes it easy to hang and wear from your favorite chain. A special and very fashionable piece, it merges seamlessly into modern day fashion and would compliment any ensemble! Measurements: The ball pendant hangs 1 1/8" long and has a diameter of slightly more than 5/8". Condition: The overall condition of the pendant is good. Besides normal surface wear, there is no apparent damage to the gold setting. The pendant opens easily and fastens shut securely, and the bail is secure and intact.
