Details
Dating to the late 19th Century, this exquisite antique Victorian pearl diamond cross pendant is fashioned in warm 18ct yellow gold and lined with twelve lustrous natural pearls that graduate toward the centre, matched with four twinkling old mine cut diamonds, with three more atop the loop.
In Christian tradition, pearls were often used to reflect the soul’s purity and virtue and were heavily associated with the Virgin Mary. Their soft lustre harmonises beautifully with the brilliance of diamonds, together representing unbreakable devotion and the eternal spirit.
This sweet antique pearl diamond cross pendant was made in Perth, Scotland by “Macgregor Jewellers” and has remained in pristine condition. A fabulous antique find, accompanied by its original box, fashioned in burgundy velvet/ silk with the maker’s mark proudly displayed in gold under the lid.
