9ct Gold, Victorian Seed Pearl Lucky Horse Shoe Pendant and Chain

Possibly converted from a stick pin or brooch, this beautiful antique necklace is such an elegant piece.  It features 23 lustrious seed pearls on a good sized (2.4cm x 1.2cm width) horse shoe, secured on a thick 9ct gold back.  It weighs 2.87g.

Elegant and striking, this versitile necklace is that perfect piece which works with day or night wear. 

The horse shoe is in a extremely good antique condition with its original pearls firmly set.  The 9ct gold simple trace chain fastens securely. You could attach the horse shoe to a shorter or long chain of your choice, but the one it comes with is 23 inches. 

Worn upwards (to keep the good luck inside) horseshoes have long been thought to bring good luck and protection to the wearer.
