9ct Gold Opening Shotgun Pendant — New
Overview — 9ct Gold Opening Shotgun Pendant
The 9ct Gold Opening Shotgun Pendant embodies precision, tradition and artistry. Crafted from solid 9-carat yellow gold and fully hallmarked in the UK, this exquisite fine-jewellery pendant features a working hinge mechanism that opens and closes with subtle movement — a remarkable example of miniature engineering. Designed for collectors, shooting enthusiasts and lovers of distinctive craftsmanship, it unites the heritage of British field sports with modern refinement.
The attention to proportion ensures it feels substantial yet balanced, ideal for wearing on heavier chains or displaying as a keepsake piece. Every detail — from the shaped stock and barrels to the engraved texture — speaks of quality and authenticity. It’s both an homage to traditional gun-making skill and a showcase of precision goldsmithing in wearable form.
Design & Craftsmanship — 9ct Gold Opening Shotgun Pendant
Each pendant begins with a precision-cut wax model defining mechanical tolerances for the opening action. After casting in 375 gold, every hinge is assembled and polished by hand to ensure smooth motion. Artisans refine each surface under magnification, balancing satin and high-polish finishes to emphasise realism and depth. The result: a miniature piece of functional art that moves gracefully yet retains robust durability.
The hallmark from a UK Assay Office confirms authenticity and purity. Responsibly sourced materials and thoughtful presentation reflect our commitment to sustainable fine jewellery. Packaged in a premium box, it is an unforgettable gift for connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike.
