Indulge in a very rare antique Victorian Snake Pendant or Brooch depicting two entwined snakes or serpents. The snakes are beautifully created in 14 Karat Gold. The snakes are coiled around each other in a deep engraved repousse design. A fringed tassel hangs between the snakes. The snakes have fabulous applied gold eyes and their forked tongues extend from their mouths!
