Large Antique Victorian Crescent Moon and Star Necklace in 14k Yellow Gold - JL778

This Victorian Crescent Moon pendant is beautiful on all sides. This hand forged moon is a hollow piece of gold that was originally a brooch. The pin was removed on the back with a heavy modern chain attached.

We typically find these antique crescent moons in a much smaller size with a single star but the three star version is rarer. The 14k yellow gold cable link chain is heavy, solid, modern chain at a finished length of 16"

This one is particularly larger and heftier than most I acquire. This is from my personal collection and am ready to part with this and find someone that will enjoy and cherish it.
