Antique Victorian 18ct Gold Turquoise Snake Charm

An antique snake charm crafted in rich 18ct gold and set with a vibrant turquoise, converted from a Victorian stickpin and finished with a chubby 18ct gold jump ring. Compact yet full of presence, it is a striking little talisman with beautiful colour and movement.

The snake is one of the most powerful symbols in antique jewellery, representing eternal love, protection, rebirth, and continuity through its ability to shed its skin and renew itself. Turquoise has long been worn as a protective stone, associated with safe travel, good fortune, and friendship, and was especially favoured in the 19th century for its vivid colour and talismanic qualities. Together, snake and turquoise create a piece rich in meaning, intention, and history.
