How adorable and truly unique! This pendant is an exquisite example of Victorian-era craftsmanship and artistry, delicately carved from pre-ban ivory.
The design features a charming hatching chick emerging from its eggshell—a playful yet meaningful symbol of new beginnings and the beauty of nature. The soft, creamy tone of the ivory highlights the intricate hand-carved details, such as the delicate texture of the shell and the lifelike features of the chick’s tiny beak and head, which seem to peek out with curiosity and innocence.
The egg itself is wonderfully polished, providing a smooth surface that contrasts with the organic, textured carving of the hatching scene. The pendant suspended on a fine sterling silver chain with an adjustable length.
Measurements :The egg measures 2.4cm x 1.7cm. The adjustable length chain measures 45.5cm at longest length and 40.5cm at shortest length. Pendant and chain with a combined weight of 7.4grams.
