About the Item

Indulge in a very rare antique Victorian Snake Pendant depicting a snake or serpent wrapped around a flower with a Bohemian Garnet center and lovely enamel adornment. The snake pendant is beautifully created in 10 Karat Gold. The snake is coiled around the stunning flower in a deep engraved repousse design. The snake has a fabulous head and entwined body! The snake coils around the flower with the gorgeous collet set Bohemian Garnet in the center. The flower is adorned with blue and green enamel. The snake pendant dates to circa 1840-1880. It is extremely rare to find these early snake jewels and we are so excited when we do! And snake jewelry is all the rage today. In the Victorian era the snake was the symbol of eternal love. It has come to symbolize sexuality, rebirth and wisdom. The snake pendant is 1 1/2 inches (38mm) long including the bales. It is 3/4 inch (20mm) wide. The pendant is 7mm deep. The pendant is 10 Karat Gold. The pendant weighs 2 grams. There is some minimal wear to the enamel consistent with the age of the pendant. The listing is only for the pendant. The chain is only shown for display.
