Antique 18ct Gold & Carnelian Intaglio Seal Fob with Coat of Arms

Tax included.

Circa 1840, this aristocratic Georgian/Victorian fob seal pendant is made in sumptuous 18ct buttery yellow gold. An impressively large size it is bursting in ornate neoclassical decoration with deep grooving and a fluted column and regal crown at the top.

The base is set in a semi-translucent Carnelian in a glowing orangey red. The gemstone is engraved in the most incredible coat of arms intaglio: an armorial shield has a boar inside with a wolf's head perched on the top. A ribbon banner underneath is engraved in a Latin inscription that reads " Suo Marte", roughly translated this means "independently, by his own efforts/strengths". Steeped in historical wonder, this piece really makes us ponder who might have owned such an impressive fob seal!

A fabulous collector's piece with so much history to explore this luxurious gold fob pendant will look incredible paired with a substantial gold chain to match its stature and character!
