Celtic Style Signed Vintage Natural Tiger's Eye and Sterling Silver Locket Pendant Brooch - Layaway Available!

What an awesome vintage treasure this is! This looks as if it could have been
produced by a Celt, Viking or Anglo Saxon, but is definitely from the last
century. Comprised of hallmarked (Jan and 925) sterling silver and a large
tiger's eye cabochon, and measuring just over 1.25 inches in length, this is a
stunning locket which can also be used as a brooch. It has ornate scrollwork
detailing around the edge of the locket in silver. The case is clean, and both
the hinge and pin mechanisms work. This beauty weighs 11.94 grams. Tiger’s eye
is a variety of quartz that is well known for its silky luster and beautiful
striations. It has inclusions of iron and quartz, which give the stone its
striped appearance and an optical effect that’s called chatoyancy (“chat” is
French for cat). Due to its unique appearance, this stone has been known and
widely used since ancient times. Egyptians believed it to be a form of the
“all-seeing eye” and used it to make actual eyes for gods’ statues. Tiger’s eye
was carried to battle by Roman soldiers, who thought it would give them the
strength and courage of a tiger.
