FAQs

Articulated clown pendants gained widespread popularity in the 1970s and 1980s as whimsical figurative jewellery, constructed with riveted joints that allow the limbs to swing freely.

These pendants are primarily crafted from 9ct yellow gold and often features small inset gemstones or glass accents to decorate the circus costume details.

Authentic pieces are stamped with official hallmarks such as 375 or 9ct, accompanied by assay office marks and makers initials usually located on the bail or clasp.

Figurative gold pendants are styled by layering with fine gold chains of varying lengths or displayed on velvet jewellery stands as vintage collectables.

Clean gently with warm water, mild detergent, and a soft cloth, taking care not to submerge small articulated joints in harsh chemical cleaners.
