Large Regency Gold Cased Watch Key with Carnelian feed-condition-used but the real highlight isA large watch key with a diamond shape carnelian on both sides. It dates circa 1820s 1830s. We think these delightful watch keys make elegant and quirky pendants. In the Regency times, even something as mundane as a watch key was given careful thought and consideration. The design turns the key into a decorative jewel. Bring out the Pride but perhaps not the Prejudice in you!
