Edwardian 15ct Gold Suffragette Pendant set with Green Garnets, Natural Split Pearls & Pink Tourmalines

13W
Written by Olly Gerrish

A lovely 15ct gold pendant which clearly displays the Suffragette colours and would have sent out a coded message to other supporters of the movement that the wearer was a member. The secret message is Give (Green garnets) Women ( White Pearls) Votes (violet/vermilion Amethyst,Tourmaline) It is very pretty with a central oval cut pink tourmaline and a pear shaped pink tourmaline drop with five small green garnets and decorative scrollwork around the outside set with natural split pearls. Green garnets were the newly discovered stones from the Urals in Russia and were used in Edwardian jewellery. They are rare and expensive stones. It was made circa 1910-1915.
