About the Item

Indulge in a very rare antique Victorian Snake Pendant depicting a snake or serpent wrapped around a flower with a Bohemian Garnet center and lovely enamel adornment.

It is extremely rare to find these early snake jewels and we are so excited when we do! And snake jewelry is all the rage today. In the Victorian era the snake was the symbol of eternal love.

The pendant is 10 Karat Gold. The pendant weighs 2 grams. There is some minimal wear to the enamel consistent with the age of the pendant. The listing is only for the pendant.
