Scottish Victorian Agate Silver Cage Pendant

An unusually shaped Victorian pendant in sterling silver and polished natural Scottish agate.

Scottish jewellery was made popular by Queen Victoria from the mid 1800s when she and Prince Albert frequently visited Scotland and her Scottish castle Balmoral. She loved all things Scottish and spent much time in the Highlands and Cairngorm mountains where these Scottish pebble stones were collected. 

SIZE: 4.2cm long; the "cage" is approximately 2.4 x 2.7cm.

WEIGHT: 14.4g. 

MATERIALS: 925 sterling silver, agate.
