Edwardian Moonstone Charm Necklace
Circa 1910, a luminous antique moonstone cabochon with the distinctive blue flash we love so much, in a multi-prong crown setting crafted in 14k yellow gold. We added the bail to make it a magical little pendant, perfect for adding a touch of the ethereal to your daily necklace curation.
Details: Measuring approximately 3/8" east to west across the setting and 5/8" north to south inluding the attached bail. Hung from a fine contemporary 18" 14k mixed link chain, total necklace weight approximately 2.3 grams.
Condition: In excellent condition with a mellow antique patina to the gold and subtle natural inclusions in the moonstone seen at some angles.
History: The lore of the moonstone is romantic and rich. For centuries it's been associated with The Mother Goddess and considered an aid to nurture emotional balance. Eastern cultures have attributed it with the power to attract love and it's been used as a talisman for protection while swimming, sailing or traveling on water.
