Description

An unusually shaped Victorian pendant in sterling silver and polished natural Scottish agate.

She loved all things Scottish and spent much time in the Highlands and Cairngorm mountains where these Scottish pebble stones were collected.

In excellent antique condition with no chips or cracks to the agates. (In one photo there's a line which looks like a crack on the ochre agate but be assured it's just a colour vein.)

Weight: 14.4g.

Victorian Scottish pebble jewellery is a style of ornament popularised during the 19th century, particularly influenced by Queen Victorias affection for Balmoral and the Scottish Highlands, featuring local stones such as agates, jaspers, and bloodstones set in silver.

These pieces traditionally utilise native Scottish hardstones like banded agate, bloodstone, and cairngorm, mounted in sterling silver or occasionally silver-gilt settings.

Authentic pieces often feature hand-cut natural stones with characteristic colour variations, traditional silverwork motifs such as Celtic or cage designs, and period hallmarks or secure C-clasps where applicable.

Such historic pieces can be worn as statement necklaces on modern silver chains or displayed within a cabinet of curiosities as part of a curated collection.

Store the item in a dry, tarnish-resistant lined box away from direct sunlight, and clean the silver gently with a soft microfibre cloth while avoiding harsh chemical dips that could damage porous stones.
