Vintage Smoky Quartz Snake Pendant Necklace 9ct Gold 25 Inch

Details

Measuring an elegant 25 inches in length, this striking vintage necklace centres on a magnificent ~50-carat faceted smoky quartz briolette drop, crowned by an intricately detailed serpent bail. Fully hallmarked in Birmingham in 1995, the artisan-crafted chain combines lustrous smoky quartz with vivid green chalcedony beads, creating a captivating interplay of colour.

Steeped in romance, this piece revives the Victorian era’s most cherished motif: the serpent, a timeless symbol of eternal love, wisdom, and protection. With its warm, translucent brown tones, the quartz evokes the soft glow of dusk and is historically associated with strength, clarity and grounding.

This one-of-a-kind statement necklace drapes effortlessly for both everyday luxury and glamorous evenings. A captivating treasure, destined to turn heads and become a treasured centrepiece of any jewellery collection
