Antique 18th C. French 18K Vermeil, Garnet & Pearl Converted Earring Pendant

A beautiful and incredible find, this rare piece dates to the early 1700s! Originally one of a pair of earrings, it has since been converted into a lavish pendant. Beautifully crafted in vermeil (18 karat yellow gold over silver), it has closed back jewels: deep red garnets and natural pearls. Designed to swing and sway with each move you make, it can be worn on a chain or ribbon, at the throat or nestled in your decollete. Oh la la! So French, so special, and so rare, it will definitely become a treasured part of any antique collection!
