Victorian Armorial Carnelian Gold Seal Fob Pendant

Can you picture it? He puts the finishing flourish on his signature and holds the letter, holds a stick of red wax over a flame and lets it build drop by drop onto the folds of the letter. He blows on the wax for a second and then gently presses his seal into the wax, pleased that just the right amount of wax has oozed out all the way around. He lets it cool for a moment before pealing off his fob and putting it back onto the chain and tucks it into his vest pocket.

This wonderful intaglio carved carnelian fob is set into a simple but very beautiful frame and fob crafted in 9 karat gold. The stone measures 17.5 x 16.5 x 3.9 mm and the overall size of the fob is 32.7x21.8x19.9 mm and weighs 5.5 grams. This gorgeous fob was hand crafted in about 1860, most likely in England, it shows a wonderful carved cross on a shield, no doubt a family crest.
