Georgian Gold-Cased Carnelian Fob Seal, England, c. 1800

This charming Georgian fob is a testament to the elegance of an era when beauty often outweighed function. Set with a vibrant shield-shaped carnelian stone in a rich orange hue, its surface remains smooth and uncarved—a clear indication that this piece was designed more as a decorative accessory than a working seal. The ornate top showcases a delightful clover motif, while repoussé floral details embellish the base, creating a piece that is as enchanting as it is timeless.

Crafted in England around 1800, this fob is made using the gold-cased technique, where a layer of gold encases a sturdy base metal, lending both beauty and durability. Measuring 23.1 mm in height with a face of 12.2 mm by 12.2 mm, it weighs 2.54 grams. Its ornamental appeal and exquisite details make it perfect as a pendant or a statement charm, ready to add a touch of Georgian sophistication to any collection.

A delicate relic of a bygone era, this fob is a celebration of artistry and adornment, a jewel meant to be admired and treasured for its graceful design.
