About the Item
This stunning piece of Victorian handmade jewellery is made from unmarked but tested silver, which forms an oval foliate wreath shaped mount with filigree detailing.
The mount has central claws which hold the oval opaque white polished chalcedony stone which has a bevelled edge and a concave surface.
The stone has beautiful, subtle graining. It is mounted at the bottom with a silver hand engraved double stem of leaves with two stems of single flowers set in amethyst, most likely representing forget-me-nots, which sends a Victorian love message to the receiver.
This fine piece of Victorian silver jewellery is most likely of Scottish origin and dates to circa 1860.
The hinged pin fastens securely, and there is no damage or repair.
Height 4cm x width 5.3cm x depth 1.2cm
