About the Item

A masterful expression of Victorian symbolism and craftsmanship, this antique hand pendant (circa 1860–1870) is an exceptional jewel transformed from its original brooch form into a striking, one-of-a-kind pendant. Sculpted in solid 18 karat gold, the hand is rendered with exquisite detail and gracefully clutches a cobalt blue enamel belt, a motif rich in meaning—representing loyalty, fidelity, and unbreakable bonds. Delicate diamond-set leaves add a graceful shimmer, while a vibrant chrysoprase cabochon at the center lends a luminous green touch, historically associated with protection and joy. The contrast of rich blue enamel, sparkling diamonds, and glossy green stone creates a harmonious, visually arresting composition. The gold has been professionally tested via X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and acid testing, confirming its 18K gold construction. Measuring approximately 2.4 inches from the top of the bail to the bottom by 1.1 inches wide, the piece weighs 13.05 grams and is in excellent antique condition, with only the lightest surface wear consistent with age and its original conversion. Upon purchase, your pendant will arrive elegantly packaged, ready for gifting or as a special treat for yourself. We carefully wrap each piece to ensure a delightful unboxing experience.
