Victorian Rock Crystal Amulet Pendant | 15ct Gold Mount | c.1880s

Description
A striking pendant from the 1880s, set with a bold, uncut rock crystal in a crown-like 15ct gold mount.
Measuring 6.5cm in length, it balances raw clarity with refined craftsmanship, a sculptural piece with presence and purpose.
Rock crystal, or clear quartz, was long believed to carry protective and amplifying properties.
Its size and form suggest this wasn’t made for mere decoration, but as a personal talisman - a charm for strength, clarity, and emotional resilience during times of upheaval or transition.
The gold setting, shaped like an open crown, adds a sense of elevation and reverence, framing the crystal without softening its raw energy.
Worn high on a ribbon or long chain, it would have sat close to the heart, both adornment and armour.
Today, it wears as a statement of personal power: elemental, luminous, and full of quiet intention.
A rare and expressive jewel, with real presence.
Available exclusively at ELTONS, Grays Antique Market, Mayfair, London.
