Made by the esteemed early Australian jewellers Willis and Sons, this very special piece dates to around 1910.
Originally wax filled, it has been fully restored and the wax removed.
This piece will need no introductions for lovers of Victorian jewellery, and will appeal especially to anyone chasing the coveted unicorn head stamp.
This is a beautiful, wearable collector’s piece.
Many of the surviving specimens of this nature no longer have the two tone gold effect. Each decorative panel was washed in a brighter yellow gold but that layer often rubs off over time.
This piece still has the yellow gold wash visible.
