About the Item
This Georgian fob was made in the 1830's. It is made of 9 karat gold over a metal core, and it carries a plate of orange carnelian at the bottom. The carnelian is engraved with a coat of arms. The shield is divided into four parts and tinted in white and black. A triangle ribbon is displayed behind the coat of arms studded with a star on the sides.
Fob pendants are precious objects or ornaments made of metal, precious stones or other materials that existed in ancient times. In the second half of the 18th century, a new generation of amulets came into fashion, worn as a pendant and ornamental pendant on the watch strap or watch chain.
Ornaments of classical art, leaves, volutes and grooves form the next body of the pendant and lead to the eyelet attached at the top. The elegant pendants can be worn on a watch chain, on a charms bracelet or with your other favorite beauties.
The fob measures 3.3. centimeters in height excluded jump ring, 2.7 centimeters wide and 2.3 centimeters in depth. The pendant weighs 16.91 grams. Due to the intensive wearing and the antiquity of the jewel, the eyelet at the top is worn on the sides. Despite this wear and tear, the fob is in very good condition. The pendant comes without the chain.
Most of our charms come with an open jump ring, which is used to attach them to a bracelet or necklace. We recommend this ring to be closed professionally by soldering them together before wearing - this can be done by your local jeweler.
The pendant will be gift-wrapped in black and gold jewelry box.

Antique Georgian Carnelian Small Fob Pendant
Located in Rotterdam, NL
This antique Georgian fob pendant, dating back to the late 18th to early 19th century, is a fine example of the elegant craftsmanship of the period. The pendant is adorned with a carnelian stone, a richly colored orange-red gemstone that was highly favored during the Georgian era. The carnelian is polished and set securely into a decorative metal mount, featuring engraved lines throughout the fob. The pendant’s design reflects the artistic trends of the time, combining functionality with aesthetic appeal.
Fobs were originally practical items used to seal letters and documents with wax. The base of the fob, typically engraved with a crest, monogram, or decorative motif, would leave an imprint in the wax, serving as a personalized signature. This made them essential tools for gentlemen and women of status during the Georgian era, as they were used for authenticating important communications.
Beyond their functional purpose, fobs quickly became fashionable accessories, symbolizing wealth, style, and social standing. Worn on a pocket watch chain, waistcoat, or as pendants, fobs often showcased intricate designs and high-quality materials, such as precious stones like carnelian, amethyst, or agate. The vibrant carnelian stone was particularly popular due to its durability and its association with protection, vitality, and courage.
Over time, fobs evolved from purely utilitarian objects to highly decorative jewelry pieces, admired for their beauty and craftsmanship. They were often gifted as sentimental tokens or symbols of affection, further enhancing their appeal.
