WOW!! RARE, Extremely RARE Late 1800s Genuine Saphiret Heart Pendant. The Saphiret ALONE is valuable. It's set in a gold filled Antique setting that is worn however, THE MOST IMPORTANT part of this Pendant is the Saphiret Glass Heart which is in Excellent Antique condition. It is valuable like a gemstone as these Genuine OLD ones are So Very Rare. Henri Etienne Sainte-Claire Deville was the First producer of Saphiret Glass in the mid 19th Century. Saphiret Glass was often used in the Old Russian Faberge Eggs. Saphiret can sometimes be confused with sapphirine glass, which is similar in appearance but, does Not exhibit Dichroism. The Saphiret Alone is HIGHLY collectible and sought after. One could leave as is, The heart hangs upside down, I don't know why? the jeweler made it that way, however, I Leave things Original when they're as Rare as This. It measures a little more than one inch, as depicted in photo. The production of Saphiret Glass was Very Complex and involved melting various metallic oxides together at high temperatures. Saphiret Glass is no longer produced today, and Surviving Pieces are Considered Very Rare and Valuable so, as my investment was clearly a hefty one, it was Worth it to share with someone who would Know it's Quality, Rarity and Lovingly Cherish it for many years to come.
