This is a really lovely Victorian 14k gold bracelet with a velvet band and set with a finely carved shell cameo, c. 1890. The gold findings attaching the velvet band have a scroll chased design and the frame of the cameo is also nicely detailed with repousse design. The frame is 1 1/4" wide and the frame with the clasp is 1 7/8" long. The velvet band is 7/8" wide and the bracelet measures 6 3/4". Condition is excellent with a nice tight clasp - there is a tiny split (about 1/16") in the frame, but this is not noticeable and doesn't compromise the setting of the cameo.

This is a gorgeous pair of Victorian onyx earrings, c. 1880. The onyx is set with a 10k gold floral design with seed pearls held by rivets to the earrings. The earrings have the original wires and are in pristine condition with no chips to the onyx. The onyx is finely cut with facets and beveled edges that don't show up well in the photos. The earrings measure 1 1/16" x 1/2". They are not marked, but the gold tests 10k.

This is a wonderful set of Victorian 14k yellow gold mother and daughter brooches, c. 1880. Each pin is set with a single cabochon almandine garnet which forms the center of a flower. The larger brooch has a diameter of 1 1/2" and is 1/2" deep; the smaller brooch has a diameter of 7/8" and is 3/8" deep. The three-dimensional effect doesn't show well in the photos, but they have good depth. Both pins are in excellent condition with the original c-clasp and tube hinge. They are not marked, but test 14k gold.

This is a gorgeous Victorian gold filled mesh slide bracelet with tassels, c. 1880. The slide has nice applied wirework and chased design and is large (1 1/4" x 7/8"). It is set with a faceted red glass stone and four seed pearls. The chased design is repeated above the tassels. The mesh bracelet is 3/4 wide and is adjustable to a maximum inside circumference of about 8". Condition is really excellent. There is very minimal wear visible only with magnification. Two tassels have been reattached but this is not noticeable from the front at all. This lovely bracelet looks like solid gold.

This is a very sweet Victorian 12k yellow gold and enamel brooch in the form of a buckle, c. 1890. The pin is small - 3/4" x 5/8", but has wonderful detail with black and white taille d'epergne enamel. The brooch is in great condition with no loss to the enamel. The front is 12k gold and the back is gold filled. It has the original c-clasp, but the hinge has been replaced and it looks as though a hook has been removed from the back.
