This unusual antique Victorian gold fob pendant dates from the second half of the 19th century, circa 1870.
The body of the pendant is crafted from a single piece of banded agate which has been masterfully carved to create this truncated shape. Traditionally, the bottom of this fob pendant would have been engraved with a personal monogram or family crest to be pressed in wax and used as a personal seal for letters and important deeds. However, remarkably, this example has survived without having ever been engraved.
The pendant weighs 2.9 grams and measures 3cm x 1cm including the gold bail. It is unmarked but tests as 14K gold and remains in excellent condition despite its significant age.
