Amethyst and Turquoise Starburst Pendant in 9ct Gold

£675.00

Description

A rare and evocative late Victorian starburst pendant, c.1900. This 9ct yellow gold piece features a central royal purple amethyst, from which radiates a celestial arrangement of turquoise cabochons and natural seed pearls.

The intricate openwork design is framed by a delicate scalloped border, giving the 35mm pendant a light, airy presence on the neckline. Notably, the decorative bail is also gem-set with turquoise and pearl—a sophisticated detail typical of high-quality turn-of-the-century craftsmanship. Suspended from a later 18" gold chain, this necklace is a quintessential example of the "Suffragette" palette and celestial motifs of the era.
