445S
760 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

An attractive 9ct gold fob that has been set with a carnelian on one side and a bloodstone on the other side. It was made in Birmingham in the late 1800s. It swivels because the stones could be engraved with a crest or monogram and then used to seal letters with sealing wax. Nowadays these fobs are worn on Albert chains or with other pieces on a bracelet.
