Lot 54
Of ornate design, centring a collet-set oval opal within a frame of similarly set demantoid garnets, to an openwork frame embellished with seed pearls, mounted in 15ct gold, length 50mm, gross weight approximately 6.7 grams.
Estimate $450 - $600
In our opinion, the solid white opal displays gold play-of-colour, with some crazing and some abrasions to the surface. The garnets and seed pearls of decorative quality, 1x seed pearl deficient. The mounting has wear to the metal in the form of minor scratches and scuffs.
The pendant is of good workmanship with signs of wear consistent with age and use, not noticeable when worn.
Overall condition is very good considering its period.
