Antique 18ct Gold Slinky Articulated Fish Charm with Ruby Eyes

£0.00
Sold Out

An epic 18ct rosy gold articulated fish pendant with bright pink old-cut ruby eyes, wonderfully detailed and charming. Segmented for subtle, lifelike movement and so realistically crafted that it seems ready to swim; each section is finely etched to mimic fish scales, and the delicate etching throws off a fantastic sparkle in the light with every little turn of this lovely fish.

Fish charms were long prized as symbols of good luck and prosperitY. I adore how charming this one is — from his rounded, puffy face to his tiny, finely worked fin.

The bail is attached at the mouth, cleverly resembling a just-caught fish, which adds to its novelty and collectible appeal; pieces like this are becoming increasingly hard to find. A pleasing size that sits beautifully in a neck stack, adding a touch of extra sparkle and a pop of colour.
