Description
Victorian Banded Agate & Pearl Cross Pendant. A striking Victorian cross pendant set with beautifully matched Scottish banded agate cabochons displaying dramatic natural black, brown and white stripes. The cross is highlighted by delicate seed pearl accents to each terminal and is mounted in warm yellow 15ct gold, creating a wonderful contrast against the richly coloured agates. Scottish agate jewellery became highly sought after during the Victorian era due the Queen Victorias deep affection for Scotland and Scottish culture after purchasing Balmoral Castle. It remains one of the most collectable forms of antique jewellery today. The natural bands within the stone were often seen as representing continuity, endurance and the layers of life. This substantial cross weighing 17.4g has a bold presence while retaining an elegant and wearable design. The cross measures 8.6cm x 5.4cm and does not come with the chain pictured, a wide variety of chains are available upon request.
