This pendant began life as part of a Victorian-era silver damaged broch, now reimagined into a wearable medallion. Its central design features a raised floral sprig framed by a beaded oval border, surrounded by textured silver that catches the light beautifully. The result is a bold yet elegant piece with strong Victorian character.
