Antique Victorian 10K Black Agate Mourning Pendant
This is a poignant and beautiful antique pendant, a true relic of the Victorian Era's tradition of mourning jewelry. The pendant features a large, polished oval of black agate, a stone favored for its solemn color and durable quality. When held to the light, the agate reveals subtle striations and a degree of translucency, adding depth and character to the stone.
The gold frame of the pendant tests as 10k gold, which was common for this type of jewelry during the period. The piece measures 1 7/8" tall, including the bail, and 1 3/15" wide. Notably, the attached bail is marked and tests as 14k gold, suggesting it was likely a later replacement, which often occurred as these treasured pieces were repaired and handed down through generations.
This is a profound and elegant piece of history, perfect for a collector of Victorian-era jewelry or someone who appreciates its deep historical significance.
