Antique 19th Century Silver Baroque Pearl Pendant

19th century
For Sale by Corvidae Antique
Description

This fabulous antique piece started life as a brooch but has been converted to a pendant. Formed of solid silver set with two gleaming garnets and a baroque pearl dangle, we believe it to originate from France in the early 1800s, with a later cultured pearl.

In very good antique condition; the central figure has worn over the years, particularly on the nose, but the silver detail is fantastically crisp, the gems are intact and the pearl has a lovely shining nacre.

Size: Approx 4.7cm total drop, the pendant measures around 4.4cm across.

Weight: 9.4g.

This Victorian and Neo-Renaissance pendant originates from the nineteenth century, having started life as a brooch before conversion. Formed of solid silver, the ornate openwork frame displays elaborate scrollwork ornamentation, two flush-set ruby-toned garnets, and a central cherub mask encircled by radiating rays. A suspended, tear-shaped baroque pearl drop hangs from the lower section via a small loop, whilst a fluted suspension bail sits at the top. The silver finish exhibits crisp detailing alongside visible wear on the central cherub nose from age, contrasting with the shining nacre of the pearl. Measuring 4.7 cm high, 4.4 cm wide, and 1 cm deep, this item possesses a substantial presence. It suits daily wear suspended from a chain around the neck or incorporation into existing jewellery collections for period enthusiasts.

Neo-Renaissance jewellery from the 19th century frequently incorporates ornate openwork metal, classical scroll motifs, figurative elements such as cherub masks, and gemstone accents, drawing aesthetic inspiration from 16th-century goldsmithing.

These pieces commonly featured sterling or continental silver, natural irregular baroque pearls, and set gemstones or glass paste cabochons within chased, cast, or openwork metal frames.

Authentic period items exhibit natural silver oxidisation, hand-finished detailing around closed or bezel settings, historical hallmarking, and characteristic natural surface irregularities on the pearl.

An antique silver pendant can be suspended from a modern chain or velvet ribbon for wear, or presented decoratively on a velvet jewellery tray or within a glass-fronted collector box.

Clean the silver surfaces gently using a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding liquid chemical dips or abrasive polishes that can permanently strip or damage the organic nacre of the pearl.
