Victorian Masonic Mother of Pearl Charms
Located in London, GB
A very rare mid-19th century French masonic mother of pearl charm pendant. It is truly remarkable how this particularly fragile gold and mother of pearl pendant has survived in such pristine condition for all these years. The charm pendant features 5 different motifs associated with Freemasonry including the shovel, all-seeing eye, compass, square and scales. They have all been crafted in gold and hand carved mother of pearl. The individual pendants can be easily added or removed as the bail is actually a split ring which opens up. The pendant weighs 1.77 grams. The gold is unmarked but tests as 15K gold. It measures approximately 2cm in length. A fantastic and coveted addition for any collector of rare and antique masonic jewellery.

Victorian 18K Gold Capped Large Coral Large Cornicello Pendant
Located in Venice, CA
Circa the Victorian era, this beautifully polished piece of natural branch coral has an organic form and rich salmon color. The coral has a waxy patina and glows the way only Victorian coral can. It has a lovely elongated shape, capped with an 18k gold repeating leaf foliate motif. The growth patterns and natural details of the coral are visible, and because a piece of branch coral this size is hard to find, this is a rare piece. Acquired on a recent trip to Amsterdam, we believe this piece to be Dutch made. It was originally a seal that had never had a cypher, or monogram, added to it. We thought it would make a perfect pendant, so we added an 18k gold bail with a matte finish to match the antique nature of the piece. The 18k gold cap, intended to be a cypher, is hand-carved with bright cut work—creating a pattern of leaves from tiny punched in cut marks. The gold has a great patina that we left in tact, as it is part of the antique charm of the piece. The large pendant has presence on the neck. It looks great alone, but also stacks beautifully with other charms. It is pictured here on our Signature Handmade Dog Bone Link Chain...
