A delightful Victorian gold “buckle” initial jewel, now highly sought after as pendants.
Beautifully created in 9 carat gold, this charming piece is a buckle style so loved during the Victorian era. At the centre sits an ornate letter “G”, intricately formed and set with lustrous seed pearls.
Surrounding the initial is a white enamel border and polka dot work. The gentle wear only adds to its character, telling the story of a jewel that has been loved for well over a century.
Originally created as a buckle worn on a ribbon, these intimate initial pieces have become especially desirable today when worn as pendants, allowing their sentimental charm to be enjoyed in a modern way. Whether representing a personal initial or simply appreciated for its beauty, it makes a deeply personal and elegant adornment.
