Add to Wishlist
Antique set of three gold filled and gold toned fobs on an engraved split ring. These Georgian to Victorian miniature fobs are engraved on the top, each detailed and crisp. The three fobs are of varying sizes, though all on the smaller side making them ideal for wearing together. All of the three fobs are in very good condition.
Left to right in the first photo, they are shown in a different order in other photos to show their back sides or details:
1 - gold toned, circular in shape with black glass engraved "Good Night All's Well" with a candlestick. The top has a textured background with small floral flourishes. The handle has an incredibly pretty split style design with rope detailing. Measures 18.48 mm / 0.74 inches tall and the base is 11.95 mm.
2 - gold filled, geometric shape, scallop edged set with a carnelian which is engraved with a butterfly. The top is shaped into a shell style with ridged all the way around and the handle is urn shaped. Measures 21.7 mm / 0.85 inches and the base is 12.45 mm.
3 - gold filled, rectangular shape set with a clear (perhaps very pale yellow) foil backed quartz which is engraved "It's Time To Think" with an owl. The top features a scalloped edge design and the handle is lyre shaped. Measures 20.15 mm / 0.79 inches tall with a 10.5 mm by 9.55 mm base.
All three fobs are suspended from a gold tone engraved split ring which measures 14.35 mm outer diameter and 10.7 mm inner diameter.
