Victorian Opal, Diamond & Ruby Pendant

696U
160 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

This is a very pretty pendant that was made circa 1880-1900.  In the centre is a beautiful cabochon opal that displays vivid flashes of red, green and blue. Arranged around the opal are trefoils set with old mine cut diamonds with rubies in between.  The bale has also been set with a diamond. It is a lovely flowing design and the combination of gemstones is unusual.  The stones are mounted in silver and the reverse is 15ct gold. It would make a lovely and unusual gift.
