ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

Whereas most Victorian-era jewels are intricately ornamented, this 19th century pendant is distinguished by its striking simplicity. A sizable,glossy elongated oval cabochon coral, imbued with lovely variegated pink hues, is presented within a concave dish-like frame, bordered inside by a fine rope strand. Hand fabricated in velvety 14K yellow gold, circa 1880. The pendant measures just over 1 1/8 inch by 7/8 inch and suspends from a newer 18K 16 inch chain. Converted from a brooch with vestiges of former pin stem on the reverse.

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.
