Georgian 18ct Gold & Amethyst Cross Pendant

523U
Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A stunning and finely made 18ct gold ornate Georgian cross that was made circa 1820. It is in mint condition and has been set with well matched oval and pear shaped amethysts with detailed cannetille work in between. At that time new mines had been opened up in Brazil. Imported amethysts were very expensive and only set in to the finest jewellery. The coiled 18ct gold top ring is original too. It is always such a pleasure to find good pieces of early jewellery in such wonderful order

Ollys Pick

The Georgian era is my favourite period and this piece is a great example from that time
