Illuminate your jewellery collection with this enchanting Victorian star drop pendant, crafted in silver and gold. A poetic piece dating to the late 19th century, it evokes celestial elegance with its moon-and-star motif—set with a glittering array of 12 antique-cut diamonds, totalling approximately 0.80 to 1 carat.
At the top of the pendant sits a bright old mine cut diamond (approx. 3.5 x 4.5 mm), set within a rounded silver setting we like to believe represents the moon. Suspended beneath, a stunning five-pointed star houses a light yellow-hued old mine cut centre stone (approx. 4 x 4.5 mm), embraced by five old cut diamonds and five delicate rose cuts, one set on each star tip.
Measuring 24mm long, including the bail, this heirloom pendant is the ideal size for layering with antique and vintage chains or styling as a solo statement. The back and bail are 9ct gold, while the front showcases silver detailing—a beautiful example of traditional Victorian craftsmanship.
In excellent antique condition, with minor nibbles to the smaller diamonds consistent with age, this romantic celestial charm is a rare find for collectors and lovers of meaningful, stackable antique jewellery.
