An exquisite antique Victorian pearl cross pendant from the mid 19th Century, decorated with twelve natural baroque pearls along the cross bars and atop the bale. They all have a distinct shape and bright silver/ cream tone and are held securely in 18ct yellow gold claw settings. 

Baroque pearls are a true treasure of the ocean and produced organically by freshwater mussels or saltwater oysters. They’re desired for their exceptional lustre and irregular shape which gives them a more distinct character than their perfectly spherical counterparts.

This is a fabulous antique Victorian cross, displaying a beautiful collection of natural pearls and has remained in excellent condition across the centuries.
