TWO AMETHYST PENDANTS AND A ROCK CRYSTAL PENDANT
19TH CENTURY
One amethyst pendant is carved as a larger and smaller double-gourd borne on a flowering leafy branch, with a bat alighted on one side. The other amethyst pendant is carved in openwork as a squirrel between two melons borne on a leafy vine and a large leaf at the bottom. The flattened rock crystal pendant is carved in openwork as a peach, a pomegranate and a finger citron, the sanduo, borne on leafy branches.
The largest 2 ¼ in. (5.7 cm.) long
