Victorian Gold Turquoise Pearl Halo Pendant Necklace

A beautiful antique pendant set with vibrant blue turquoise and a halo of tiny gleaming seed pearls. It looks as though the pendant was made from an older piece of jewellery - the bottom half is a higher carat of gold and, we believe, started out as something else before the top turquoise cabochon and the lovely Etruscan-style bail were added. Reworking jewellery was historically a common practice which enabled ladies to preserve heirloom jewels but keep up with fashions.
