{"product_id":"antique-edwardian-ruby-eyed-skull-pendant-in-yellow-gold","title":"ANTIQUE Edwardian Ruby-Eyed Skull Pendant in Yellow Gold","description":"ANTIQUE Edwardian Ruby-Eyed Skull Pendant in Yellow Gold featuring an articulated jaw and vivid, natural ruby eyes. Hallmarked in Birmingham, England in 1910, the skull bears the G \u0026amp; C.H. maker‘s mark, attributed to Birmingham manufacturers G \u0026amp; C Hodgetts, along with the 9\/.375 gold standard, Birmingham anchor and 1910 date letter. An unusual example of Edwardian jewelry with a distinctly macabre character, the skull‘s hinged jaw opens and closes for movement and personality. Its skull motif draws on the centuries-old tradition of memento mori jewelry, symbolic reminders of mortality and the fleeting nature of life.\u003cbr\u003e\nPurchased in London and more than a century old, the pendant has been fitted with a modern, oversized 14K yellow gold bail, allowing it to be worn on a variety of chains and charm holders while preserving the original antique skull.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe pendant measures approximately 27 mm long including the bail. Chain sold separately.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nComplimentary shipping.","brand":"Village Jewelry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46824741142607,"sku":"ET-4578695021","price":699.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0583\/2992\/3663\/files\/il_fullxfull.8548932384_5kxn.jpg?v=1789852992","url":"https:\/\/villagejewelryco.com\/products\/antique-edwardian-ruby-eyed-skull-pendant-in-yellow-gold","provider":"Village Jewelry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
