AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This piece of jewelry is a beautiful example of craftsmanship and history. The pendant features very clear, official Swedish hallmarks on the bail, making the origin and the year exact.
Key features:
Material: 18-karat gold (certified with the official '18K' stamp).
Origin: Sweden (equipped with the well-known Swedish 'Kattfot' guarantee mark with the three crowns and the Stockholm city hallmark).
Year of manufacture: Exact 1949 (guaranteed by the official Swedish year letter Y8).
Weight: 2.44 grams (a refined, elegant and light piece of jewelry to wear).
The Camee: An authentic, hand-carved shell cameo (not plastic or glass!) with a beautifully fine-detailed female portrait against a warm red-orange background.
Condition of the jewelry: The pendant is in excellent vintage condition. The gold has a gorgeous, deep 18K luster and the pale pink shell is completely undamaged (no cracks, chips or deep scratches). The back is left open, allowing light to shine beautifully through the shell when the pendant is worn.
A unique heirloom for the collector, or a truly meaningful gift
