An exquisite celestial starburst pendant from from early 20th century, crafted in 9ct yellow gold. The pendant radiates elegance with its finely tapered eight-pointed star, adorned with seed pearls that were beloved during the Edwardian period for their soft lustre and delicate beauty.

At the centre lies a richly hued round-cut garnet, offering a vivid contrast to the creamy pearls. The outer tips of the star feature stylised tulip-shaped terminals, each set with a single pearl, lending a touch of botanical romanticism to the piece. Suspended from a matching pearl-set bail, this pendant embodies the light, lacy aesthetic characteristic of Edwardian jewellery, with an emphasis on symmetry, subtle sparkle, and ethereal charm.

Condition: Excellent antique condition. Pearls are well preserved with even lustre, and the garnet is securely set with rich colour. Gold surface shows only minimal signs of wear, commensurate with age.
Note: Chain is not included.
