Unusual Mole Motif Antique Fob Seal three_stone The origins of the loveHow very unusual this Victorian era fob is. The seal contains three bands: one containing two moles, a center band with Chequy, or checkerboard, pattern, and a third band with another mole, all hand carved into a rich carnelian. Set into an impressive, four armed pendant of 10k yellow gold, the pattern is crisp and clear. It's large in size, and it's that much more special for its near immaculate condition. Letter writing was the email of the day
