ABOUT:
I had a "clean out the jewelry box" moment this week and decided to release several pieces from my personal collection.
I enjoyed wearing this rebus fob seal pendant, but I have a mouse one that I have been reaching for more, so I'm letting this one go.
The piece is crafted in 10k gold (tested) with floral open work details. It is set with a carnelian that is engraved with a flower & "to" & a tree.
The flower is a pansy which during the period meant "think of me" and the tree is a Yew tree. So the engraving represents "Me to You". Whimsical little piece. These rebus seals are always sought after for their fun pictures representing words.
Any props not included. Please note the measurements as I have small hands and it can be difficult to decipher scale from photos..
MEASUREMENTS:
Pendant measures 22mm tall and the base is by 18mm x 15mm. It weighs 4.7 grams.
IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
Some dark wax remnants in the recesses. Some faint scratches. Still super legible.
Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned and in estate condition. They will have patina, surface wear, a few small nicks. These pieces may also have evidence of a sizing, some build up around the stones and / or inclusions seen under magnification, typical for antique pieces. I have mentioned any noticeable issues above and they are all still wearable and eager to be loved and accepted for many years to come, (the preservation of antique jewelry, even those with signs of their age and history, is important to me. : )
But - Please note due to age, this piece is not in mint condition. Pictures also serve as part of the description and condition report so please utilize the zoom feature which will magnify any wear significantly more than what is visible to the eye while wearing : )
