Watch Key Fob Pendant in the form of a Flint Lock Pistol

$ 395.00 $ 525.00

Although I would never use a fabulous thing like this to wind a watch, that was the practical purpose it was intended for. It was also created for whimsy and it's decorative value. Back before watches were wound by twisting the stem you had to use a key and fit it to a gear at the back of the watch. And since it was necessary to carry the key with the watch, these keys often took fanciful forms and were used as decorative fobs on the watch chains alongside the watches. I love to wear watch keys and fobs on my long chains as pendants. I especially love these little flintlock pistols. This one is in sterling silver and has wonderful details. When hanging from a hook on a chain it hangs at just the right jaunty angle.

Measurements: 42.6mm long, 14.1mm high, the ring to attach it to a chain measures 3.7mm. It weighs 6 grams.

Era: Late 1800's

Material: Sterling Silver

Condition: Very Good, with wear in keeping with its age.

18k Gold & Chalcedony Victorian Fob Seal with Coat of Arms

$ 1,295.00

There are so very many things to love about this Fob Seal.

Crafted of 18k yellow gold, everything is perfectly in balance, from the beautifully decorative ring on which to attach it to a chain to the subtly embellished bars that make up the body of the piece. The seal itself is set into a grooved bezel of gold which is connected to the bars by decorative balls. It is beautiful and decorative from all angles, but my favorite part of this piece is the seal itself. Engraved with a bow-topped shield, the family crest is engraved within this larger shield, it is a standing lion holding a shield on which are engraved 3 birds and 3 stars.
