£3,450.00
Description
A rare and elegant Victorian Tassie necklace, beautifully set in 15ct gold. Each finely detailed plaque showcases a unique mythological scene, rendered in the classical style. The Tassies—glass paste intaglios created to imitate semi-precious stones like banded agate—feature striking white surrounds that closely resemble the natural layering of genuine agate. These exquisite cameos are named after James Tassie, the renowned 18th-century Scottish gem engraver and modeller, who popularised this technique. The necklace is finished with a concealed clasp, preserving the seamless beauty of its antique design. www.charlottesayers.com
Measurements: 39cm long. The central tassie measures 2cm x 1.7cm
