I love carved coral, I love flowers, so pounced on this pretty thing. With the two little coral beads it’s so decorative, somehow those two beads really elevate the piece, it’s suddenly more than just a gold chain and a pendant.
I don’t know what the flower is, possibly convolvulus, whatever it is, it’s beautifully done. The corals are just the right shade, not too pale, rich but not brash, and I think this would go so well in a stack of other chains.
Circa 1900
9ct yellow gold (tested) and coral
Clasp is stamped 9c
20’’ long, coral bud is 18mm long including bale, beads are 4.5mm diameter
3.7 grams
Very good. The clasp has a tiny hole in it (sort of looks like it’s supposed to be there!) but works perfectly with a clear ‘click’.
