A delicate 22kt yellow gold and garnet pendant from c. 1850. The pendant was a symbol of a beautiful flower bud that is about to bloom. The twisted gold threads that form the pendant's shape symbolize the delicate petals that hold the flower's bud together. This pendant has a romantic, poetic feel that we love very much.
Details —
The gold has a 22kt stamp on the bail.
The pear garnet is approximately 0.60 carats.
A small freshwater pearl, 2.6mm in diameter.
The pendant's height from the bail is 23mm, and its width is 12.70mm.
The total weight is 1.40 grams.
The Condition Note —
The pendant is in good antique condition. We can see significant oxidation around the joints because the solder used to weld jewellery together contained a higher concentration of base metals—such as silver—than the surrounding gold alloy during this period.
Kind Request —
At Anisa Antiques, all our little treasures are vintage/antique and pre-owned pieces. When you have a lovely piece from the past, due to its age, they will have some signs of wear to show for the journey it has been on.
We request that you examine the photos and videos closely before buying. We try our best to describe each item and are happy to provide more information, pictures and videos. Our goal is to reduce returns and to avoid environmental and economic impact as much as possible.
Jewellery Care —
Due to their age, antique and vintage jewellery can be delicate, and a bit of care will be needed to extend its lifespan. Please do not wear jewellery while you are working in the garden, swimming, or doing an intense workout. Please avoid using harsh chemicals and soaps that might damage certain gemstones.
