Victorian 14K Gold Filigree Pendant with Pearls, Emeralds & Pink Topaz, ca. 1850

About the Item

This beautiful antique pendant is a refined elegance and meticulous craftsmanship of the mid-19th century. Likely originating from England around 1850, this piece is created in 14 karat yellow gold with an openwork filigree design, skillfully shaped by hand. This decorative wirework technique was highly prized during the Victorian era, and remains a hallmark of fine antique goldsmithing. At the heart of the pendant lies a vibrant oval-cut pink topaz, symbolizing love and emotional clarity, and historically believed to have protective qualities. It is surrounded by a graceful arrangement of lustrous pearls and rich green emeralds, forming an elegant floral and scroll motif that radiates symmetry and romantic charm. A matching pear-shaped pink topaz drop adds movement and visual balance to the piece, giving it a refined sense of drama and sophistication. The pendant is suspended from a beautifully matched gold chain adorned with pearls. These pearl settings on the chain not only harmonize with the main pendant’s design but also enhance its luxurious character, suggesting the piece was custom-assembled or commissioned as a cohesive suite. Though the gold bears no visible hallmarks, its composition has been confirmed as 14 karat. This jewel likely belonged to a well-to-do individual or family during a time when jewelry served as both personal ornament and status symbol. Its preservation in such fine condition over more than 170 years is remarkable, suggesting it was cherished and carefully maintained as a prized possession. Origin: Likely England Period: Mid-19th Century (circa 1850) Material: 14 Karat Yellow Gold (no visible hallmarks) Stones: Pearls, Green Emeralds, and Pink Topaz Dimensions: Approx. 5.8 cm height x 3.0 cm width Weight: 5.9 grams Condition: Excellent, well-preserved antique condition
