ABOUT THIS JEWELRY

Who needs a gold bar when you can have this infinitely more intriguing Victorian pendant/brooch. The uniquely designed jewel features an oval bezel-set gold-in-quartz plaque (the gold has the appearance of fluttering fall leaves), trimmed with delicate twisted gold wire and crowned with a fanciful slatted crescent accented with tiny gold beads. Twisted-wire dangles—accented with open hexagonal shapes—dangle from elegant scrolls adding lively motion to this no-one-else-will-have-one jewel. Hand fabricated in 18K gold (pin stem is 14K yellow gold), circa 1875, it suspends from an 18-inch chain.

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.
