This pendant with a winged cherub is delicately carved in mother-of-pearl and surrounded by rose-cut diamonds. The pendant is 14 k yellow gold, and the diamonds are set in 14 k white gold. Ten larger and 47 smaller rose-cut diamonds surround the cameo, and nine more diamonds are pave-set on the bail. This piece is really stunning...perfect for the lover of cherubs. 1 1/2" x 1" plus 3/8" bale. Marked [and tested] 14 k, and there is a maker's mark I can't identify.

Some marriages are made in Heaven, and this is one. This brooch is a marriage of three Victorian pieces: the bar pin with six diamonds, the enamel bow, and the heart-shaped enamel slide. The bow and slide must once have been part of the same piece. The pin is 12 k gold, and the bow and slide 18 k. The bar pin is 1 3/4" long. It's absolutely stunning!

Wonderful and wild earrings of 18 k gold and tiger claws. These are Victorian, dating from the time when young Englishmen made the Grand Tour. They often hunted tiger in India, bringing the claws home to be set in jewelry. Each earring is 1" X 1/4". The 18 k earwires are new. See item #1004484 for a spectacular tiger claw pin.

This lovely turn-of-the-century pendant is signed with the dragonfly mark for Mayle & Meyer, a firm about which little is known.

This wonderful example is made of 935 silver [higher silver content than sterling], enamel, citrine, and marcasite. The pendant is centered with a 12 x 30 mm oval citrine surrounded by marcasites, with enameled bows on the sides and enameled ribbons top and bott ...click for details
