For sale is an 18k yellow gold sepia painting mourning pendant This Victorian era mourning pendant features many of the classic elements of mourning jewelry of its time, with the weeping willow tree, gravestone, and anchor all representing grief and loss. The gravestone is engraved with the German word "Andenken", or "Remember". The large anchor rests against the gravestone, representing the fact that the deceased was a sailor lost at sea. The background is a sandy beach with the ocean in view and a tiny sailboat is visible behind the anchor.
Sepia mourning jewelry is created with paint that is made from the hair of the loved one. This is truly a lost art in today's world.
The pendant has a beveled glass top to protect it. The painting is framed in gold with a scrolling, twisting design. The pendant is backed in 18k gold. It has an articulated bail to accommodate your chain. It looks amazing with other Victorian, gothic, and Egyptian revival style jewelry.
The item shows normal wear for a pre-owned piece (light scratches, dings, dents and scuff marks.)
