Georgian 18th Century Flat Cut Garnet Portrait Miniature Necklace/Clasp
Georgian 18th Century Flat Cut Garnet Portrait Miniature Necklace/Clasp
Charming, Convertible.
All original Georgian flat cut garnet clasp with a most charming portrait miniature of a young lady (circa 1740/50). We love her pink dress and flowers in her hair!
The clasp functions, and has holes for 10 strands of chain, pearls, or beads. We added a simple silver rolo chain to wear this as a necklace (without altering the original condition of the clasp), and the buyer can easily remove the chain, if desired.
Unmarked
Silver, garnet.
Dimensions and weight:
● 34.3 mm long (chain is 15.5 inches long, with the miniature, adjustable to 14.5 inches)
● 29 mm wide
● 5.7 mm deep
● 15.2 grams (total, including chain)
Period: Georgian and Contemporary (the silver chain)
*Please note that all dimensions and weights are approximate. Age-commensurate wear may be present. We have not polished or cleaned the silver, leaving that to the buyer.
*US shipping only on this piece.
