Antique Australian 9ct Gold ‘Kewpie’ Pendant Circa 1910


Collections: Sold Archive



Probably the cutest Kewpie we have ever had the pleasure of offering for purchase.

Larger than the average at 3.2cm x 1.8cm and crafted from 9ct rose gold which has been bloomed or gilded giving it a yellow gold appearance.  Over time the blooming or gilding has slightly faded in places allowing the rosy hue to show through especially on his tummy and toosh which is just adorable.

With characteristic googly eyes, tummy button, teeny ear buds and top knot to the rear of his sweet little head this perfect Kewpie would make the perfect addition to any Rosie O’Neill collection or any antique Australian jewellery collection.
