Victorian Whitby Jet Picture PendantVictorian Whitby Jet Picture Pendant  Ref: CAT738
An oval shaped Victorian Whitby Jet picture pendant with an engraved detail.

The pendant has a glazed compartment in the back that would have contained a photograph or lock of hair. The compartment is currently empty.

The pendant measures 2.3cm (1") in thickness and is 5cm (1-7/8") tall, excluding the metal ring, and 4.3cm (1-5/8") wide. The pendant is in very good vintage condition with just one small chip close to the inner border at the front and a surface crack on the rear face, which is probably due to a defect in the jet. More Pictures...

Victorian Vulcanite Cross Pendant


Vintage Bakelite Cross PendantVintage Bakelite Cross Pendant  Ref: CAT573
This is a Vintage cross pendant with raised brass detail.

This pendant is made from Bakelite which is an early plastic. It is rather crude in execution but this makes it quite a charming piece of mock gothic jewellery.

The pendant measures 8.5cm (3-1/4") by 5cm (2"), excluding the suspension ring, and is 4mm (1/4") thick. The pendant has been re-polished and has a good black colour. The only real 'defect' is that the central brass detail is set at a slight angle. This was certainly a manufacturing defect as the brass does not seem to have been reattached. There is also a small surface chip on the back of the pendant, which is only mentioned for completeness. More Pictures...
