Antique 'Stars & Compass' Masonic Watch Key Pendant
£675.00
/
SKU: x4145
How divine is this antique 'stars and compass' masonic watch key pendant! Her Gold cased body boasts embossed flowers and ornate detailing, perfectly framing the Sardonyx and Agate.
Intricately hand carved into the creamy layer of her Agate are petite stars and a masonic compass exposing the inky black layer. Compasses are symbolically employed to draw a boundary line around our desires to avoid overindulgence and maintain moderation.
This Victorian fob would originally have been used to wind watches, allowing the hands to continue to spin and adjust the time. Although not used for this in the modern day, she still makes for an utterly gorgeous and unique pendant that will look striking suspended from a dainty Gold chain!

Layaway Installment Plans
A layaway is an interest-free payment plan that enables you to reserve an item with an initial deposit, and then pay the balance over 60 days.
Layaway is very popular with Lillicoco customers, particularly when making a more considered purchase.
How It Works
In total, you will make three payments over three months:
Day 1: 30%
Day 30: 35%
Day 60: 35%
Your layaway purchase is reserved for you as soon as the initial payment has been taken.
Your order is shipped once the full balance has been paid.
All of our usual terms and conditions apply with a layaway purchase, although 15% of the invoice total is nonrefundable in case of cancellation or return, acting as an administration fee.
A layaway is not a loan, nor is it a form of credit. A credit check is not required to put an item on layaway, and missing a payment will not affect your credit score.
If you do not complete your layaway on schedule your reservation may be cancelled and your payments may be refunded, minus the administration fee.
