A beautiful, historically fascinating antique marriage piece featuring an authentic Victorian-era watch fob (circa 1890) beautifully converted into a modern, ready-to-wear statement pendant necklace. The fob has been paired with a high-quality antique gold-filled cable chain.
The Pendant (Victorian Watch Fob):
- Motif: Features a gorgeous, highly detailed classical profile of a Grecian maiden with beautifully rendered, loose, romantic flowing hair and a stylized leaf decorative bail at the top.
- Material: Crafted from genuine translucent Green Aventurine Quartz. When tilted under the light, you can see the natural, microscopic shimmering "glitter" inclusions (fuchsite mica) deep within the stone.
- Metal Composition: The decorative bezel frame has been XRF-verified as high-quality Gold-Filled (unmarked, which is historically accurate and standard for gold-filled fobs of this late 19th-century era).
- Dimensions: Measures approximately 27.4mm x 26.8mm (roughly 1 inch).
The Chain & Clasp:
- Suspended on a sturdy, perfectly balanced 2mm gold-filled round cable link chain.
- Measures a comfortable 20 inches in length, resting elegantly at mid-chest level.
- Secured by a vintage mid-century spring-ring clasp with an excellent, snappy spring tension.
