ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

An angel on your shoulder might keep you out of trouble, but one that hangs at your neckline keeps you looking pretty. Carved from dusky slate-colored hardstone, this sweet cherub has found a seat and is blissfully plucking his harp. Set in a bright 15K gold bezel, the modestly sized pendant (formerly a brooch), suspends from a fine 16-inch 14K gold cable chain that adjusts to 18 inches. Late Victorian. By Australian jeweler, G.H. Palfrey - a highly unusual provenance.

About Victorian Jewelry

The eclectic Victorians didn’t limit themselves when it came to motifs and themes—if it struck their fancy, they turned it into jewelry. Sweet and sentimental with a distinct romantic streak, Victorian gems expanded upon their Georgian predecessors. The array of styles that blossomed (sometimes quite literally) during this era endure to this day.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
