1896 Yellow Gold and Enamel Love Token with Bird in Pond and Engraved "Baba" on Back
This antique pendant is made from unmarked yellow gold. It’s enamelled on one side with a white bird on a pond, with reeds and a bullrush to the edge. On the reverse the name Baba is engraved, with the date 1896. It’s unmarked but acid tests as at least 9ct gold and there’s a split ring at the top for hanging.
The pendant is 2.1cm long including the bale and 1.6cm wide. It weighs 2.0 grams.
Condition: Very good antique condition. There’s a little enamel loss here and there when viewed under a loupe and the engraving on the other side also is a little rubbed, mostly on the second “b”. However, this doesn’t detract from it being a beautiful and unusual antique piece.
