Shipping calculated at checkout.

Georgian period 


This is a wonderful, early 19th century fob crafted in high carat gold.

Circa 1820/30; The fob contains an oval Chalcedony stone, with a finely carved intaglio of a ‘Horse passant’ and a large shield with a further 3 horse heads.

Below the shield is a ribbon banner with the words:

J’AVANCE which translates as ‘I ADVANCE’

or ‘I MOVE FORWARD’

The horse is beautifully detailed, with a proud chest and flowing mane and tail.

It is rare to find horse intaglios and especially of such fine quality.

The high carat gold is  reeded and has a ball finial at the top.

The fob hangs from a faceted 15ct gold split ring, making it really easy to add to chains of any size.

The family crest plate can be found in the ‘Fairbairns Book of family crests’

Bracelets & Bangles:

How your bracelet fits is a personal preference.
To check your preferred size, wrap a tape measure loosely around your wrist to the tightness you would like your bracelet to fit.
From the end of the tape measure to the point where it crosses the tape is your desired bracelet length.
Please compare this to the measurements specified on each of our bracelet product pages.
Note, some bracelets are adjustable – this will be mentioned in the description.
Note, if a bangle does not have an opening, you must select one that will pass over your fist.
 
 

Necklaces

All The Old Cut chains and necklaces have the total length detailed in the description.
The measurement will be in cm and inches.
We recommend you place a tape around your neck to see where the chain will sit.
Below is a basic guide to show some popular lengths – note, everyone’s neck is different, so this is just a basic guide.
JEWELLERY CARE

Antique Jewellery should be taken care of during wear.

Cleaning and repairs should be carried out by an antique jewellery specialist.

We recommend removing pieces of jewellery before washing hands or showering, as water can damage the antique settings.

Some pieces are not recommended for everyday wear

The Old Cut guarantees the piece up until the new customer receives the item.

Any stones that are lost or damaged during wear are not covered by The Old Cut. These will be charged for replacement, we can of course help find a suitable jeweller to support repairs.
