Art Deco Sterling Silver IMH Enamel Butterfly Slide Fob Pendant Catholic

All antique goldsmith handmade and hand carved this is an antique late Victorian to early 1910s marked 10K yellow gold natural carved shell cameo pendant with its original round hinged antique bale for a necklace. This is an early one that is very intricately and beautifully carved and has pearls applied to the handmade 10K gold frame. It is marked 10K on the bale and is thoroughly jeweler tested and guaranteed to be solid 10K yellow gold....Not plated or filled. In lighting it looks most like an Antique Victorian light rose gold. It has that look and feel with a light patina that you only see on antique gold. It is from an estate from many decades ago and all parts are original. It has a very, very tiny 1/4mm cut on the side of one pearl that was found with loupe inspection and is not eye obvious. Other than this the pendant is excellent gently used condition. No cracks, chips, flakes or breaks. No hairlines. No tears, dents, dings. All good. No gold damage or repair. The lady portrait is well-carved with fine crisp details and good, strong depth. Amid her hair is an unusual carved cap. Size is just about 1 1/2″ tall north to south with the bale by 7/8″ wide across. Weight is 4.8 grams. This is a gorgeous antique Victorian gold cameo pendant for your collection.
