Wonderful Victorian 14K yellow gold fob charm set with cabochon amethysts. The fob is decorated with fine granulation and wirework in the Etruscan style. The surface of the lobed charm has the “bloomed” texture characteristic of mid-Victorian jewelry. The point was for Etruscan jewelry to appear ancient and the bloom was used to heighten this appearance. The top of the fob has indistinct hallmarks. Tested and guaranteed 14K gold. Origin: probably England, ca 1865. Condition: excellent, all original. Size: 1” long. Weight: 3.0 grams. |
