ABOUT:
A tiny little diamond charm with the roman numerals XIII for the lucky number 13. Crafted in platinum and set with little rose cut diamonds for sparkle. Minimalist statement on a chain or also a nice size for a bracelet charm.
13 was traditionally considered a lucky number in some countries in Europe prior to World War I, and was used in numerical form as a good luck symbol during the Victorian to Art Nouveau period.
There are hallmarks on the loop that appear to be symbols so I am assuming this one came from somewhere in Europe. I can't identify them but it was sold to me from a jeweler with a spectrometer who tested it as platinum.
Any props not included. Please note the measurements as I have small hands and it can be difficult to decipher scale from photos, especially with the zoomed images that I am required to present for detail.
MEASUREMENTS:
8.7mm to the top of the attached loop (not including the dangling jump ring) by 9mm wide. It weighs just 0.55 gram.
IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
Note the small loop.
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 : )
SOCIAL:
Please feel free watch @mouseshouseantiques on Instagram for inventory drops, sneak peaks and previews! And check out my website www.MousesHouseAntiques.com as I can add more pics there so you can get extra looks : )
All items hand picked by me, one at a time from all over the world. All listings individually written by me, and not AI, after studying each piece to discuss its beauties and its ; ) eccentricities (which I am picky to point out).
