Georgian 18ct Gold Emerald & Ruby Locket Brooch & Pendant

421S
282 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

This pendant was made circa 1820 and is so unusual. The gold filigree work is in mint condition. The gemstones around the locket section are rubies and emeralds and there is another emerald on the bale.   It has a small locket in the centre which may originally have contained a lock of hair and another hinged glazed locket section on the reverse. It can be worn as a brooch or as a pendant.  As a collector’s piece I would recommend it as Georgian items in good original condition are rare.
