Victorian Diamond and Ruby 'Beggars Heart' Silver and Yellow Gold Pendant
About the Item
A Victorian diamond and ruby 'Beggars Heart' silver and yellow gold pendant.
This charming heart shaped pendant is composed of two hearts, one set within the other and both freely articulated.
The outer heart is set with old mine cut diamonds in silver, which is typical for the Victorian period - this allows the white brilliance of the diamonds to really stand out against the blackened silver behind them.
The inner heart is set with old cushion cut rubies in yellow gold, a warmer and softer background for their pinkish hue.
The reverse of the pendant is finished in yellow gold.
The old mine cut diamonds have a total weight of 1.40 carats approximately, assessed as H/I colour, VS2 clarity.
Dimensions:
32 x 28 x 2mm
The locket is threaded through with a modern, non original elegant 9 karat white gold 16 inch cable link chain.
This pendant is a beautiful example of the romantic and sentimental Victorian aesthetic, no other time was the heart shape so wildy popular as during the era of Queen Victoria, who was the proud owner of many heart shaped jewels, including in her collection a charm bracelet which comprised of a heart shaped charm representing each of her children.
Condition - Overall the condition of the pendant is good, with abrasions and some discolouration to the surface of the gold in keeping with its general age.
