Antique Carnelian seal fob pendant, Swan, 9ct gold cased

There is something extra special and quite simply mesmerising about antique seal fobs particularly when carved with wonderfully intriguing symbols and mottos.

This beautiful antique intaglio seal fob is crafted in a 9ct yellow gold casing with a typical chased flora design and a rectangular shaped matrix.

It is set with a rich red carnelian stone which has been carved with a regal swan.

The swan in a heraldic sense is known to represent harmony and in jewellery they are a symbol of love and fidelity thanks in part to their long lasting relationships with one another.

A wonderful historic piece, it looks fantastic worn on an antique gold chain or attached to a nice gold Albert chain.
