GENERAL INFORMATION
Size: The sphere has a diameter of 18 mm, excluding the jump ring.
Weight: 6.85 grams.
Age: 19th Century, also known as the Victorian era, circa 1870s.
Hallmarks: Hallmarked with a French hallmark for 18k gold.
Condition: In great antique condition with only minor wear, consistent with age. I have decided not to clean the silver front for now because I appreciate the greyish patina that was created over time, but it could be polished back to a high sheen if desired.
