c1850 Old Antique Victorian Danlge Drop Garland Vintage Bohemian Garnet Necklace

~ Circa 1850 ~

• Natural rose cut Bohemian garnets set in a brass base metal (tombak), typically used throughout this period.
• The original safety chain has been removed.
• The metal has started to tarnish at the back (please see photos). I’m unsure whether this can be cleaned by a jeweller.
• Some scratches due to wear over time.
• No missing garnets, although some may have been replaced over the years.
