120 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A beautiful 18ct gold pendant that was made by Edwin William Streeter.  Streeter is a well known English jeweller. He set up business in 1867 in Conduit Street and then moved in 1873 to New Bond Street where he described himself as a ‘Diamond merchant, Goldsmith, Jeweller, Watchmaker’. He took a particular interest in precious stones. Although he announced his retirement in 1884 and sold off much of his stock, he did not retire but admitted partners into his business which was now restyled Streeter & Co and became a limited liability company in 1895 as Streeter & Co Ltd. By 1904 E W Streeter finally retired.

This pendant is typical of his style incorporating a large cabochon garnet . In the centre is a star set with natural split pearls. Around the garnet are white enamelled oval motifs within a rope edged border. The bale and drop are the same design. On the reverse is a glazed locket. It is signed with Streeter’s initials and marked 18 for 18ct gold.
