Antique diamond cluster flower pendant. I just love this glitter ball of a cluster! The diamonds, all antique old mine cuts, sparkle like crazy. To the centre is a largest old mine cut diamond which is set in a pinched style collet. Around the edge are 12 smaller old cut diamonds, like a clock with one where each number would be! These diamonds are set very close together creating that wonderful fire thrown everywhere. The diamonds all have open culets and very high crowns, that old cut style we all love!

In very good condition. The diamonds and flower mounting date to circa late 19th century, 1870s - 1880s.

Diamonds: 13 total, old mine cut diamonds. Centre diamond of approx 3.8 mm, 0.28 carats. 12 surrounding of approx 1.25 mm, 0.01 carat each to total 0.40 carats total, I / J colour, SI1 / SI2 clarity as calculated within the limits of the mounting.

Not stamped, professionally tested and assessed as 9 carat gold and silver. The base where this touches the skin is 9 carat gold, which is yellow in colour and the top is silver. This was common during the Victorian era when diamonds became popular and setting them in white was the done thing but white gold wasn't yet used (Art Deco era) nor was platinum (Edwardian era).

Measures approx 11.45 mm / 0.45 inches tall not including the bail by 9.1 mm / 0.36 inches wide.

Weighs 0.8 grams.
