Vintage Emerald-Toned Cabochon Cross Pendant

This item is a cruciform pendant featuring six prominent emerald-green cabochon stones. The stones are oval or circular in shape and possess a deep, rich saturation, likely intended to simulate emeralds or high-quality bottle glass. They are set in a dark-toned metal frame, possibly silver with a heavy patina, oxidized brass, or pewter. Each stone is secured by a highly decorative bezel or 'pie-crust' setting with intricate metalwork surrounding the base of the cabochons. The pendant is attached to a simple, thin metal cord or chain via a decorative bail that features a fleur-de-lis or stylized foliate motif. The construction suggests a traditional or gothic revival influence, common in mid-20th-century costume jewelry or folk crafts. Condition-wise, the piece appears well-aged with significant oxidation on the metal components, which enhances the vintage aesthetic. The stones seem to be in good structural condition without visible major cracks or chips, though there is dust accumulation around the settings. The scale of the pendant suggests it is a wearable devotional or statement piece, approximately 1.5 to 2 inches in length.
