Antique Timepiece (Steampunk) Necklace Pendant No.30
Circa 1820 English Verge Fusee Hand Carved/Filigree Balance Cock and Circa 1900 (US Made) Elgin National Watch Co. Silver and Gold Plated Watch Dial

Sold as: PENDANT ONLY, or PENDANT WITH CHAIN (see details below)

PENDANT SPECIFICATIONS: Weight: 1.2 ounce (35 grams), Diameter/Width: 1.65” (42mm), Height w/Bail: 2.09”(53mm), Thickness: .42” (11mm)

The centerpiece, and a gorgeous example of old world craftsmanship, is an ornate hand-carved/pierced c.1820 English Verge Fusee balance cock (part that covers/pivot point for the balance wheel) that's repurposed into an heirloom piece of jewelry. It is cut free from its mounting plate, contour polished, metallic foil added underneath, then mounted to a c.1900 gold and silver plated brass Elgin pocket watch dial - along with an antique watch gear and 12 Purple Velvet Swarovski crystal rhinestones - then coated in a thick layer of epoxy resin for a no-snag/smooth and long life finish.

The dial is mounted to a small clock winding barrel spacer with Tanzanite and clear crystals, which is mounted to a vintage brass clock gear and a 1/16" acrylic disc that has a cut-out for the gold plated bail. A pour of purple mica tinted epoxy completely encapsulates the bail and acrylic disc, which makes it a permanent part of the pendant and the edge is polished to a smooth finish. The larger diameter bail will fit most chains without the need for additional mounting rings.

- Available STAINLESS STEEL ROPE CHAIN:
Durable and easy to maintain, these necklaces are made from 304 Stainless Steel that hold up well to the rigors of daily use with very little tarnish, and they are a perfect fit for John Galen Necklace Pendants, which come with oversize bails that fit this necklace without the use of an additional ring that can easily break.

METAL ALLERGIES NOTICE: 304 stainless steel and 316L surgical steel have extremely low Nickel levels and are often safe to wear even for individuals with a Nickel allergy to enjoy wearing occasionally. 304 stainless steel has 8% Nickel, compared to 10% in 316L Nickel, making it the safest of all stainless steel. 18ct Gold Plated Stainless Steel is even safer, but the gold can wear thin over time - exposing the stainless steel underneath. 304 stainless steel contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel and 74% iron.
