Antique Natural Pearl and 4.84ct Diamond, 18ct Yellow Gold Pendant / Brooch Circa 1880

19th century
For Sale by AC Silver
Description

A stunning, fine and impressive antique Victorian natural pearl and 4.84 carat diamond, 18 carat yellow gold pendant/brooch; part of our Victorian jewellery collection.

This stunning, fine and impressive antique Victorian pendant/brooch has been crafted in 18ct yellow gold.

The pierced decorated, escutcheon-shaped design is ornamented with curvilinear splayed strands incorporating twenty-seven individually claw set Old European round cut diamonds.

The upper portion of the tapering design is embellished with three ribbon style designs ornamented with ten pavé set mine cut diamonds, terminating with a further claw set Old European cut diamond.

This setting is surmounted with an impressive bow design, accented with an impressive 6.22mm natural pearl representing the bow's knot.

The three-loop bow design is accented with two undulating ribbon tails and is further embellished with twenty-three pavé set mine cut diamonds, completing the design.

The pendant suspends from a contemporary yellow gold 18' chain via a detachable tapering bale to the upper border, accented with a further two claw set diamonds.

The antique pendant may also be worn as a brooch via a hinged pin and clasp to the reverse of the frame.

This versatile pendant/brooch has been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 18 carat gold.

The pendant is supplied with an IDGL diamond and gemstone grading report card.

This Victorian natural pearl and diamond brooch/pendant is a refined and versatile gift, ideal for weddings, anniversaries, milestone birthdays or Mother's Day. Its dual functionality and antique elegance make it a timeless choice for heirloom gifting or bridal wear.

Images do not always reflect the true colour and brilliance of gemstones and diamonds. The video however provides a truer representation of the actual colour and showcases each stone.

Condition

This impressive antique pearl pendant is exceptional quality, set with a natural pearl displaying fine colour, lustre and presence.

The high colour graded and well colour matched diamonds display a fine white colour, brilliance and presence; although clarity graded as P1, the diamonds create a desirable antique aesthetic.

The pendant is an exceptional gauge of gold and is in exceptional condition.

Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this fine example of antique Victorian jewellery/estate jewelry.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Late Victorian pendant brooches feature versatile dual-purpose fittings, intricate metalwork, and classical motifs such as bows, ribbons, and radiating sprays.

High-carat yellow gold, silver-topped gold settings, natural saltwater pearls, and hand-cut diamonds such as old mine or rose cuts were standard in fine Victorian jewellery.

Authentic pieces display period-appropriate gemstone cuts, hand-engraved metalwork, period gold hallmarks or maker marks, and dual brooch-and-pendant mechanisms.

These dual-function pieces can be worn suspended from a gold chain as a necklace or pinned to a jacket lapel, coat collar, or scarf.

Clean gently using a soft dry microfibre cloth, avoiding liquid cleaners, ultrasonic baths, or chemicals that can damage porous natural pearls and delicate settings.
