This one has been such a challenge to photograph!
My photographs do not do it justice.
A beautiful diamond set snake, coils around a walking stick, or shepherd's crook.
It was a brooch but I converted it into a pendant and it looks really great either on a fine chain, or on a chunkier albert chain with a bolt.
The old cut diamonds are set in silver collet settings, the head of the snake gold backed, the back of the body, silver.
The snake has a little gold tongue and ruby eyes.
Images show the pendant hanging on a diamond dog clip. This is NOT included with this pendant
