A beautiful and stylish Victorian 15ct yellow gold, graduated half pearls encrusted cross or cruciform pendant with pearl encrusted bale, hand crafted circa 1860. The half pearls of creamy, silver lustre are claw set with the larger pearls across the centre and middle surrounded by a boarder of smaller pearls. All set in buttery 15ct yellow gold throughout the pendant still retains its original bale, often a sign of quality.
This wonderful antique pendant captures the centuries old tradition of symbolic cross pendants and makes for a great piece to stack or layer with on yellow gold Albert chain or even a pearl choker.
