9k Gold Pendant Necklace with Dark Cabochon Stone

This item is a 9k gold pendant necklace featuring a decorative, possibly quatrefoil or floral-inspired, pendant attached to a delicate chain. The pendant appears to be crafted from 9k gold, characterized by its warm, slightly subdued yellow hue, which is typical for this karatage. Its design is intricate, with what looks like raised, textured detailing resembling leaves or stylized scrollwork, possibly with a matte or brushed finish on these decorative elements, contrasting with what might be more polished recessed areas. In the center of the pendant, there is a single, dark-colored stone, which appears to be cabochon-cut given its smooth, rounded surface, and could be onyx, dark agate, or a similar gemstone. The exact dimensions are not clear, but it appears to be a medium-sized pendant suitable for everyday wear. The chain is a fine-link style, likely cable or curb chain, and its length suggests it would hang around the collarbone or slightly below. The clasp mechanism visible at the top of the chain is a spring ring clasp, a common and secure type. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious signs of major damage, dents, or repairs visible. There might be some minor surface wear consistent with age and use, such as light scratches or a subtle patina, adding to its character. The craftsmanship suggests a commercially produced piece, potentially from the mid to late 20th century, given the style of the pendant and the chain. The visible details indicate a piece of reasonable quality, typical for fine jewelry of its type.
