This antique fob pendant features a black pressed glass paste cameo, often referred to as French Jet, set in warm gold filled metal. The deep black glass and classic cameo profile give the piece a distinctly Victorian character.
The cameo is securely set and framed by a simple gold filled mount that allows the dark glass to remain the focal point. Two small chain links are attached at the bail, adding to its original fob-style construction.
Originally intended for wear on a watch chain, the pendant adapts beautifully to modern styling and can be worn on a favorite chain as a bold, period-inspired accent.
The piece remains in very good antique condition and presents cleanly, with no damage to the glass and only light, age-appropriate wear.
