A beautiful antique cross set with ten glowing moonstone cabochons, dating to the late Victorian or Edwardian period. Each moonstone is individually claw set in silver, with open-backed settings. This piece has a wonderful and irregular, hand-finished construction, with each moonstone being unique and irregular in shape and size.
The cross is crafted in silver; it acid tests around an 800 purity level. It has been paired with a separate vintage sterling silver chain featuring a delicate floral clasp.
*One moonstone has a small edge chip tucked beneath a prong, visible upon close inspection. The stone remains secure.
