Unusual French Victorian Antique Fob Pendant Wax Seal
This is a Victorian Era wax seal fob. It is crated from 18K yellow gold with enamel, banded agate and labradorite. It is French hallmarked, most likely for a very well to do family or French court. The seal is hand carved banded agate with a hand etched male lion and wolf as the seal. The agate represents the bust of this fob.
The clothing and hood is in the Georgian - Renascence style era. The suit is done in red enamel with gold accents. The hood is done in white enamel with gold accents.
The enamel is aged but in very good condition meaning the white is a bit discolored in some areas, but not damaged. The face of the gentleman is hand carved labradorite which is grey with rainbow undertones. It is very well carved and facial features are exquisitely represented.
He is fitted with a eye loop and 18K jump ring. The overall condition is excellent, but please always refer to the photographs for your reference. The eye loop os hallmarked with the French owl with 75 in the middle of the body; this indicates that it is a nationally recognized region number for Paris, hence representing the Assay Office located in the Paris Area. Width at the shoulders: 22.8 mm.Of course I honor this policy. Please message me first and I will do my best to resolve any issues as quickly as possible.
