Antique Victorian Engraved Pendant Necklace 14k

This Victorian pendant necklace is made from 14 karat yellow gold and features an arabesque-shaped bubble pendant converted from an antique hat pin. The pendant displays ornate squiggle textures typical of Victorian-era jewelry from the late 1800s.

Hat pin conversions like this preserve the decorative tops of long pins that women once used to secure elaborate hats, transforming them into wearable pendants.

The chain adjusts from 16 to 18 inches with a lobster clasp closure. The textured surface catches light from different angles, creating dimension across the gold. Victorian jewelry is known for its detailed surface work and romantic motifs, both of which this piece demonstrates through its flowing, decorative patterns.
