The Victorians were masters at creating the most beautifully detailed insects! This beautiful bug started its life as a stick pin but is so much more wearable as a beautiful and simply made necklace. I've removed the pin stem and added a fine gauge 14KT Gold 18-inch chain seamlessly to the body. An additional jump ring at 16 inches allows even more versatility. Whether worn on its own or stacked with other chains and necklaces this piece is a statement. Rose cut diamonds are set in its body of silver over 14KT Gold with an old cut ruby center and cabochon ruby eyes. The bug measures 16mm wide by 20mm in height. Not marked but tested. English in origin.
