1100) ANTIQUE RELIGIOUS MOTHER OF PEARL PENDANT
& PIN-VICTORIOUS CHRIST- This is a rare pendant and
pin made of mother of pearl, with a carving of the Victorious Christ.
The
pendant/pin
measures 2 1/2 by almost 2 inches, including the bail. The frame
and bail are made of genuine gold - guaranteed to be 10K or more.
I believe it is actually 14K but I am afraid of ruining the frame
and bail by doing a test. The mother of pearl is hand cared and
is in exquisite condition. Note the elaborate designs cared directly
on the mother of pearl, including the cut-outs or filigree designs
at the lower part. It weighs 14.8 grams. There are no cracks, no
problems whatsoever. This is a rare and beautiful cameo of Christ
carved on mother of pearl, from the 1800s. This came from England.
