Antique Micromosaic Bird Pendant of 14k Gold

Celebrate the artistry of the Georgian era with this exquisite micromosaic pendant (circa 1830), depicting the Chariot of Venus drawn by three birds—a timeless allegory of love, beauty, and divine grace. Each tessera has been meticulously set to form a scene of remarkable detail, a testament to the virtuosity of early 19th-century mosaicists. Once part of a broken bracelet, the micromosaic has been thoughtfully preserved and re-mounted in a custom 14k gold frame, uniting historical charm with modern wearability.

The pendant measures 1.2 inches from the top of the bail to the base by 1.1 inches wide, and it weighs a substantial 8.6 grams. The gold has been verified for purity through XRF (x-ray fluorescence) analysis and traditional jeweler’s acid testing, ensuring authenticity.

In very good condition, with only a few tiny tesserae missing under magnification, this jewel is both a work of art and a piece of history—an evocative collector’s item that embodies the enduring allure of love, mythology, and craftsmanship.
