A beautifully made pendant skilfully converted from an antique brooch by our Goldsmith.  The diamonds are graduated and set in silver  in two rows of 13, being very bright and sparkly.
There is a raised decorative gallery and an open back, which allows light to the gemstones.
Sometimes known as a honeymoon piece, the crescent moon signified new beginnings. This lovely pendant is ready to hang on a chain and wear.
