Antique Georgian 15ct Gold Chalcedony Maltese Cross Pendant and Chain, Circa 1830

A superb Georgian 15ct rose, green and yellow gold chalcedony Maltese cross pendant circa 1830. The square-shaped chrysoprase is surrounded by a split pearl cluster with vari-shade foliate detailing in 15ct rose, green and yellow gold. The chalcedony cross surrounds this central cluster. A vacant glazed panel is placed at the back of the cluster, all suspended from a later (Early 20th Century) trace chain, stamped ’15ct’. This is a superb example from the late Georgian era and in immaculate condition.
