Description

Beautiful Antique 9ct Gold Spinning Fob with Doves and two beautiful tiger eye faces. Wonderful old spinning swivel fob with a wonderfully carved pair of Doves. The spinning part of the fob is set with two oval faces of tigers eye measuring 1.4cm x 1.2cm. The stones are set into 9ct gold mount with rope twist border and the doves on top leading to gold bale. The gold is fully hallmarked but its very hard to make out the date stamp but the 9 375 is visible which makes it date pre 1975. The delightful fob is in fantastic condition with only light wear in accordance with its age. The fob measures 3cm high, 2.3cm wide and 1.2cm deep. Weighs 9.4g.

Spinning watch fobs were popular accessories during the Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian eras, originally worn attached to a pocket watch chain and often utilised as a wax seal for correspondence.

These pieces are typically crafted from 9-karat gold using casting and hand-chasing techniques, featuring swivel mechanisms that allow a central rotating stone or seal to turn freely.

Authentic pieces often feature period-appropriate hallmarks denoting 9ct gold, hand-carved details with natural patination, and mechanical joints consistent with historical manufacturing methods.

An antique fob can be suspended from a modern heavy gold chain to be worn as a pendant, blending historical craftsmanship with contemporary layering.

Clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth, avoid harsh chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners due to the delicate gemstone setting, and store separately to prevent scratching.
