Victorian Whitby Jet Cameo PendantVictorian Whitby Jet Cameo Pendant  Ref: CAT123

The carved Jet cameo measures just under 2cm (3/4") by 1.5cm (5/8") and is nearly 1cm (3/8") in thickness. The hair is in the form of vine leaves and so this cameo is either a young Bacchus or one his followers or Bacchantes. The cameo is very well carved with well defined features.

The pendant is a typical teardrop shape and measures 5cm (2") including the Jet bale. It is 2.3cm (7/8") at the widest point. The pendant is in excellent condition. More Pictures...

Small Victorian Vulcanite Plain Locket


Vintage Bakelite Cross PendantVintage Bakelite Cross Pendant  Ref: CAT573
RECENTLY ADDED! 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...
