A Mughal Gold Pendant Set with Burmese Rubies, Emerald, and Pearls, 19th Century.
A beautifully arranged Mughal gold pendant showcasing an ornate openwork floral design, set throughout with vibrant pink Burmese rubies in varying oval and rounded forms. At the centre rests a deep green emerald, bordered by smaller clear gemstones that accentuate the symmetry of the composition. The front is adorned with natural white pearls suspended delicately along the lower edge, each attached by fine gold loops. The reverse displays a smooth gold backing with an integrated pin fitting and suspension loops at the top, allowing the pendant to be worn in multiple ways.
