Georgian Gold & Silver Coiled Snake Pendant set with Diamonds & a Ruby

436X
40 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

An unusual pendant which is composed of a coiled snake around a glazed compartment that contains a lock of hair. The Ouroboros serpent is meant to be a positive symbol that represents unity and the natural eternal cycle of birth and death, so it has been used in this jewel to remember the person who died. The snake has been set in silver with rose diamonds and a cushion cut ruby in his head. The reverse is gold.

Ollys Pick

A rare survival from the Georgian era.
