Edwardian Snake Pendant set with Diamonds with Green Garnet Eyes on a Gold Chain

602T
Written by Olly Gerrish

A very unusual and finely executed snake pendant that was made circa 1900-1910. It has been set with graduated old mine cut diamonds with a rose diamond in the middle of the snake’s head surrounded by smaller graduated rose diamonds.  It has tiny green garnet eyes.  The back is beautifully finished with hand cut and filed settings.  It has a fine trace link chain. The snake means “Eternal love”.  This jewel was given as a token of love and is so charming because of it’s hidden meanings.
