a magnificent estate jewelry marriage piece combining authentic antique utility design with premium mid-century construction.
The Pendant (Antique Victorian Era):
The focal point is a highly intricate, three-dimensional filigree sphere measuring 16.5 mm in diameter. It features an exquisite raised-relief floral overlay wrapped around a hollow, open-latticework core. This style was highly favored during the late 19th century as a personal pomander/scent ball or a harmony ball. The thick antique gold layer has been fully XRF tested and verified as premium gold-filled/gold-shell.

It has also been XRF tested and verified to guarantee genuine vintage gold purity.
