A lovely antique Victorian solid 15k gold red paste (glass) cabochon nautical compass pendant, dating to circa 1870. This beautiful nicely weighted antique Victorian solid 15k yellow gold pendant has a wonderful almost Etruscan revival look, the circular pendant has a pretty sun-form nautical compass design with a stunning bezel set foil backed red paste cabochon at its center which glows a magical deep ruby red when it touches the light, the stone framed with gold rope twist and surrounded by gold diamond shape open work sunburst rays displaying the points of a compass, the rays tipped with little gold beads and surrounded by a thick gold circular frame with further larger gold bead around the edge-very pretty! The reverse has a small attached bail and a large hanging bail.
