This pendant was featured on the BBC Antiques Roadshow. It was left to the present owner by her mother, who had been gifted it by a friend. Her friend had escaped Russia in 1918 at the age of 12, with her jewellery sown into the hem of her dress. The scratched inventory number is consistent with the numbering used by Fabergé, however no other marks are present to allow attribution of this piece.

Barrington, Diamond Mounter, 30 Alfred Place, SW7
Size/dimensions: 44.0cm long
Gross weight: 148.5 grams
Provenance:
The necklace was made for The Hon. Claude Yorke (1872 - 1940) as a gift for his wife, The Hon. Mrs Claude Yorke (nee. Fay Zarifi - d. 1928). Claude Yorke was an architect, and had worked in Cairo at the turn of the twentieth century between 1897 and 1907. He married Fay Zarifi in 1914, and family repute suggests he would have had an influence in the design of the necklace.
Thence by direct descent.
