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 Georgian era cluster pendant all autumn long. Four deep orange brown madeira citrines are set in 18k collets in the shape of a cluster. We often see the collets in silver but this one is all gold, with warm antique patina aligning with the warmth of the stones. The domed backs give the piece a nice and chunky depth while wearing, and the foil back reflects the rich burnt sienna to amber hues. Just a great antique look with such a rich color.

No hallmarks remain as is common for pieces of this age. It tests at 18k.

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 26mm by 18mm and 6.5mm deep. It weighs 4.8 grams.

IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
Some gray solder to the back where the four collets holding the stones were joined. It peeks through a tiny bit on the front in the center but looks like age related patina. A few nicks and scratches, some natural inclusions. The stones have a nice sheen considering age. Often times stones of this age have an almost matte finish from being abraided.

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 : )
