Immerse yourself in the captivating allure of an antique Victorian fob pendant. Crafted from 15-karat gold, this exquisite piece is adorned with a carnelian intaglio that unveils a poignant scene.

This wonderful, hand crafted fob was made in England in about 1850. The intaglio is carved in an oval of carnelian which measures 13.3x11.6 mm. Overall the fob measures 24.4 mm high and 14.3x 12.6 mm across, and weighs 3.8 grams. This unmarked fob tests as 15 karat gold.
