<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bluumz, post: 429518, member: 649&quot;]Please excuse me if I asked about this before, I have so many unknown little bit and pieces and this one just recently resurfaced.</p><p><br /></p><p>This little piece is 1.25 inches long. The silver marks of anchor, fancy letter p, and lion (all three in cut-corner rectangles) indicates Birmingham 1889.&nbsp; There is no sovereign head duty mark, though it could have been located right where the swivel arm join is. There is also a long makers mark which, after much squinting and research, I have determined reads F.W.T.T. for Frederick William Tomkins Turton, about whom I can find virtually nothing.</p><p>I believe the flat side of this piece may be carnelian stone. I have no idea about the other side. Garnet? I know those were popular in Victorian times. I have no way of testing it.</p><p>So, pendant or fob? Stone types? Opinions are welcome!</p><p>(Sorry, I can&#039;t get a better photo of the marks with my old phone camera.)</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]150397[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]150398[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]150399[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]150400[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]150402[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]150403[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
