Victorian Bloodstone/Carnelian Double-Sided Fob
Circa 1870. Double-sided fobs like this Victorian piece were prized accessories in the 19th and early 20th centuries, designed to be both functional and decorative. Traditionally worn on a gentleman’s watch chain, they often featured contrasting hardstones, allowing the wearer to display either face depending on mood or occasion.
The 10KT gold mount is finely executed with elegant proportions and a sturdy top loop, allowing the fob to be worn traditionally or repurposed today as a pendant on a chain or charm bracelet.
The pairing seen here is especially classic. Bloodstone, with its deep green tone, has long been associated with strength, protection, and endurance, while carnelian, admired for its warm reddish hue, was favored as a stone of vitality, confidence, and good fortune. Both stones were commonly used for seals and fobs due to their durability and rich, saturated color.
