VICTORIAN 9 carat yellow gold and banded agate oval pendant with insect perched on top

Price: $598.00
Description VICTORIAN 9 carat yellow gold and banded agate oval pendant with insect or beetle perched on top, very rare, circa 1870, 2-1/2" total length by 1-1/3" wide.  This perfectly reflects the Victorian passion for collecting things from nature, a very rare piece with wonderful coloring and so much fun to wear.  The Victorians used everything from bugs to birds in their jewelry and hat ornaments, and often they had a meaning behind them.  This is a beautiful piece of jewelry and an unusual one as well.
