A charming antique acorn pendant marked 900 for American Sterling Silver.

Acorns were used to symbolise good luck and abundance.

The acorn cap has an etched criss-cross decoration which unscrews from the main body to reveal a collapsable funnel for decanting liquor into a flask or perfume into a scent bottle.

An intriguing pendant that could also be an accessory for a silver watch chain.

The plain bale would suit most neck chains.

In great condition commensurate with age
