18 carat pendant, Brooch, Rose Cut diamonds, Victorian

This is a lovely 18 carat, unmarked but tested, pendant/brooch. This piece features rose cut diamonds, and natural pearls, and even the lovely bale has small rose cuts. It has a special feature in that the bale slips off, and if one wishes, one can wear the piece as a lovely brooch. The back of the pendant/brooch still has it's "c" clasp, and "t" hinge. This piece features four nice sized rose cut diamonds, and two nice sized natural pearls. Then there are three smaller rose cut diamonds in the bale, and several smaller natural pearls. This piece measures 3 and 1/4 inches long, including bale, and 1 and 1/8 inch wide. It weighs 14.2grams, not counting the bale,which will not fit flat onto the scales due to the brooch clasp. It is quite an impressive looking piece, and circa 1880.
