Certainly a scarce finding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA dog head fob or pendant with a loop in its mouth. The back side must have been connected to something at some point because it is filled with what looks like solder?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are plenty of reproductions of these made but this is an actual antique piece from the Victorian period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuper sturdy piece, I'm not sure of the fabrication and didn't want to scratch it up as it already has a few testing marks. It is not solid gold. It appears a warm pale yellow gold while wearing with some dark spots of patina. Under magnification it looks gilt with an underlying silver metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is not a precious metal, rather an antique part \/ finding with intrinsic value and such a fun and whimsical design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note the measurements as I have small fingers and it can be difficult to determine scale from pictures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMEASUREMENTS:\u003cbr\u003e\n25x8.2x7.8mm.

Super sturdy and cute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease 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. : )\u003cbr\u003e\nBut - 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 : )\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks so much for looking at my items!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSOCIAL:\u003cbr\u003e\nPlease feel free watch @mouseshouseantiques on Instagram for inventory drops, sneak peaks and previews!
