Imperial Eagle Locket Sterling Silver Vermeil Russian Enamel Floral Egg Pendant

Description: Imperial Eagle Locket Sterling Silver Vermeil Russian Enamel Floral Egg Pendant Design: The Imperial Eagle is a classic design element with Russian eggs as are flowers. This locket has both. The enamel is a deep dark blue and white. In addition to this egg, I have dozens more sterling silver Enamel egg pendants, lockets, egg trees, and pins for sale in my eBay store. Size Range: Medium (see size chart below) Weight: 9.1 grams Length excluding bale in inches: 3/4 inch Composition: sterling silver gilt (vermeil) Hallmarked? No Condition: Very good, no damage. This listing is for one egg pendant. The egg display case, other eggs, booklet, and display tree shown in some photos are not included but may be available for sale in my store. My store has eggs of all sizes from petite to extra large. See size chart below. What is vermeil? Vermeil (ver-MAY) is not the same thing at all as gold-filled or gold-plated. It is a layer of gold permanently fused to solid sterling silver, precious metal on precious metal. It will be stamped 925 for sterling. Also called gilded silver or gilt, it is a durable product that can be worn daily and passed on to the next generation. The gold won’t rub off or flake off. Gold-filled (GF) and gold-plated (GP) is a plating of gold on a base metal, like copper. The former is more durable than the latter, but vermeil is much better than both. Many of the finest egg pendants are not hallmarked. I have years of experience with fine jewelry and guarantee every statement made regarding precious metal. If an egg I sell you is not made of the stated materials, you are entitled to a full refund including your shipping, upon return. I have an all-sales-final policy to keep my prices low, but I stand behind the accuracy of my descriptions. The condition on all of the eggs is excellent pre-owned, unless otherwise stated. That means there is no damage. The enamel is intact, the bale is present, and all crystals and gems are present. Each pendant comes with a new square or rectangular gift box or gift bag. Some eggs may have some natural toning (darkening of the silver over time) or minor wear (contact marks) from use around the bale. So please study the photos to be sure the condition is to your liking. Some of these hand-made pendants are rare types, shaped like other round objects like pumpkin, acorn, eggplant, and crown; and a few are statement pieces, very large and magnificent. IMPORTANT: About the Buying Guide Link: Since seller-written Buying Guides have been discontinued by eBay, I have expanded mine, added new photos, and moved them to Amaz*n and Kindl*. You can find them by typing the phrase “Buying Guide Russian Egg Pendants” in any Amaz*n search box. Below is a Table of Contents for this Buying Guide and info about the series. "Collecting Russian Faberge-Style Sterling Silver, Vermeil, and Porcelain Egg Pendants" was written to help the buyers of Russian egg pendants and lockets understand the background of this fascinating collecting field, to learn about some of the most popular types, and find resources for purchase, with photos throughout. Eggs are the symbol of renewal, new beginnings, and springtime. Jewelers skilled in the art of Russian egg making create these small masterpieces inspired by the jeweled eggs made by Peter Carl Fabergé for the family of the Tsar during the 19th century. Typically, pure gold is applied over sterling silver, the egg is hand-enameled, and then each sparkling crystal and/or gemstone is added by hand. Egg pendants made of gold, fine art glass, filigree vermeil silver, wood, and enameled metal called cloisonné are also right at home in any egg pendant collection, too. Some of the most beautiful glass eggs come from Italy, especially Venice and the Italian island of Murano. This series of booklets, Buying Guides for International Collectables, celebrates folk art and collectable items from around the world, including some that are not well-known but that are affordable and fascinating. Ceramics, wood carvings, semi-precious gemstones, embroidery, sculpture, and sterling silver figurines are just some of the areas explored. Let’s feast our eyes on the traditional arts and crafts of India, Mexico, Russia, Ghana, USA, Brazil, Japan, China, and many other nations. TABLE OF CONTENTS: From Russia with Skill, About the Faberge Name, How is Value Determined? Egg Sizes, Where are They Made? What About Sterling Silver and Gold Hallmarks? Porcelain, Wood, Glass, Filigree, Gemstone, and Cloisonné Eggs, Animal and Insect Eggs, Base Metal Eggs, Where Can I Buy Collectible Eggs? What Does the Jump Ring Tell Me? Can They Be Repaired? Glossary of Helpful Terms, The Gemstones, Wearing, Displaying, and the Egg Tree. Here is an excerpt from the Buying Guide: “How is Value Determined? With Russian silver gilt egg pendants, value is determined by a combination of factors including size, condition, age, design, gems (if any), precious metal content, and most of all, craftsmanship. Skill and craftsmanship are key. Size is the most overlooked factor but is critical to value. Typically, the larger the egg pendant or locket, the more valuable because of the extra labor and materials needed. Four major sizes include:Petite: an egg pendant that is less than 3/4 inch (18mm) in length, excluding bale.Medium: An egg or locket that is 3/4th inch (18mm) to 1 inch (25mm) long, excluding bale.Large: an egg or locket that is 1 to 1 1/4 inches (31mm) in length or width, excluding bale.Extra Large: an egg or locket that is over 1 1/4 inches (31mm) in length or width, excluding bale.” End of excerpt. Egg Pendant Gift Box and Shipping: Your egg pendant will be carefully wrapped, placed into a gift box or gift bag and shipped in an outer cardboard box with padding, and not in an envelope or mailer. (See my store if you are interested in buying an egg pendant display box or tree.) I can only ship to the official ebay address. If you buy other items from my store, please ask me about shipping discounts before sending payment. My Seller FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions): Allergy Note: All lots come from a smoke free and cat free home but pre-owned items may have originated in different conditions. About Discounted Shipping: USA shipping only. I am happy to discount shipping within 48 hours of the first purchase if you request a discounted invoice after your last auction concludes but BEFORE payment is sent. Large fragile items are not usually subject to this option because they often have to ship in separate boxes. I strive to ship items via the least expensive way possible to save you money, and I utilize eBay USPS shipping for just that reason, but tracking will always be included because it is an eBay requirement. Shipping and Return Policy: I can only ship to your official ebay address and I do not ship on Friday and Saturday or during dangerous weather conditions. If you pay for an item any time from Thursday to Sunday, it will ship on Monday. If you pay for an item anytime between Monday and Wednesday, it will ship on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. Please bear this in mind, as well as the post office transit time estimates, when looking at arrival dates. In over 25 years, my return policy has not changed. All sales are final - no returns or refunds unless there is a question of authenticity or a gross error in the description. If any thing you buy from me is not as described and photographed, you are entitled to a full refund of your purchase price after the item is returned. I do not typically offer partial refunds. Payment Reminder: If you are new around here, you need to know that eBay automatically cancels the transaction if payment fails to arrive within the required period. ABOUT FEEDBACK: My top priorities are answering email, writing accurate descriptions and fast shipping. Feedback is important but not my priority. I leave feedback only once or twice a month in large groups to save time. Please do not make an offer or request a lower price unless the "Best Offer" option is available for that particular item.
