This exquisite antique pendant began its life as a brooch and has been thoughtfully converted to a wearable pendant with the addition of a 14ct gold bail. The arrow and the reverse of the bird test as approximately 14ct gold, featuring a rich, warm tone. The front is silver, providing a beautiful contrast and the perfect setting for its array of sparkling antique stones.
Adorned with rose-cut diamonds, natural emeralds, rubies, and split pearls, this piece is a true celebration of Victorian craftsmanship. Measuring 47.5mm in length, 36mm drop from bail to the arrow fletching, and 26mm wing-to-wing, it’s delicately detailed yet striking in presence. The 6mm bail makes it easy to pair with your favourite chain.
Some light age-related wear is present, including minor scuffing on the arrow and two missing split pearls—though these are barely noticeable amidst the pendant’s intricate design. The piece bears what we believe to be a worn Italian 14ct gold stamp and a French swan silver import mark, in use between 1893–1970.
Weighing 5.12g, this rare heirloom pendant is a charming addition to any antique jewellery collection. Perfect for collectors or hopeless romantics with a flair for the dramatic.
