Victorian Rock Crystal Spinning Cube Pendant
with Curling 14k Gold Frame
* * SOLD * *
An unusual Victorian era pendant fob, modeled in 14k yellow gold, whose focal element is an optically-clear, hand-carved, rock crystal cube. This crystal cube has beveled sides, clipped corners, and each of its faces is decorated with a single recessed circle. When viewed face-on, these circles create an interesting optical illusion, that reads like a hall of mirrors. The cube is pinned inside a gold, wirework frame, where it spins freely. It hangs from an oversized oval jump ring. This is very crisp. We love the clean, colorless look of this pendant, and the lovely, tactile qualities of the spinning crystal!
