A substantial double-sided spinning fob, hosting tigers eye and onyx. This piece has a gorgeous frame which creates a lovely suspension of the stones, lovely hues of buttery gold throughout. Slightly larger and chunkier than the usual fob, this pendant has a nice weighty feel in the hand.
During the Victorian era, fobs were a trendy accessory often paired with a gentleman's pocket watch. These fobs were crafted to feature an intaglio seal, allowing images, phrases, or monograms to be pressed into sealing wax on significant documents or love letters sent to faraway loved ones. In today's age, they make wonderful pendants and charms, the perfect fiddly accessory to keep your hands busy!
Tiger's Eye is said to bring protection, healing, creativity, success to the wearer. Onyx is said to bring creativity, protection. Happiness, relationship stability. The Albert chain is also available to purchase in the shop.
