[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 610207, member: 2844"]The pendant is zebu horn, very popular in the 19th century, when natural materials were en vogue. The style is 19th-early 20th century. The cap of the mount looks rose gold. The chain could be original or a later addition. As Bronwen said, it is an old style spring clasp, 19th century. Spring clasps were invented in the first half of the 19th century.
