An attractive Chinese carved pendant featuring a translucent honey-yellow amber-coloured stone mounted in a silver setting.

The warm golden-orange colouring and polished surface create an appealing translucent appearance. The stone is secured by silver claws and a fitted silver backing, with a decorative suspension bail impressed SILVER. A charming vintage jewellery piece combining traditional ornamental carving with an elegant, compact design. The stone has not been gemologically tested.

COLLECTOR’S NOTE

Carved amber and amber-coloured pendants have long been appreciated in Chinese decorative jewellery for their warm colouring, translucency and ornamental qualities. Geometric latticework and stylized botanical motifs reflect traditional Chinese decorative influences. This 20th-century pendant offers an attractive example of carved gemstone jewellery with a silver mount, suitable for collectors of vintage Asian jewellery and decorative pendants.
