DATE: Vintage, c.1980

Throughout history, the mysterious depths of the ocean have captivated our imagination, and no creature has done this more than the mermaid. These mythical creatures, half-human and half-fish, have inspired artists and jewellers for thousands of years. In ancient Greek and Roman history, mermaids were captured in pieces- hybrid creatures combining human and fish features, with attention to depicting scales and aquatic elements.

Viewed as symbols of transformation and power, this gold Vintage pendant shows this powerful symbol wrapped around an anchor- known for offering guidance and strength. A lovely combination of symbols here, and it features fine scale and hair like details throughout. Modelled in 9k gold with English hallmarks for Chester assay office.
