Crafted in 18ct yellow gold, this French watch fob features a twisting snake above a small platform, its base set with a smooth slab of banded agate. Beautifully worked and full of character, it's far too lovely to remain tucked inside a waistcoat pocket, it must be on full display!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt came to us with a poorly fitted replacement stone. We’ve since had the present banded agate carefully fitted to its base and added a decorative bail, ready for its next incarnation. A French rooster-head hallmark dates the piece to 1798–1809.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWear it on your favourite gold chain or threaded onto a ribbon to give it a modern look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails (approximate)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eDimensions: 2 1\/8\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eWeight: 11.9 grams\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials: Gold, Banded Agate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal: 18K yellow gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarks: French coq stamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Excellent Antique condition commensurate with age and wear\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShipping \u0026amp; Services\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShips fully insured, signature required via UPS from our NYC or LA offices.
