A scalloped silver gilt pendant features dense scrollwork set with varied gemstones. A small green stone tops a cross-shaped cluster of dark red gems. Blue turquoise stones form flower patterns around red gems on our left and right. At the base, a large circular setting holds a dark central stone ringed by eight green gems and one red gem. The ornate surface is highly detailed with gold-colored scrollwork throughout.
