Pocket Watch Key Victorian Goldstone Antique Fob

This is an unusual pocketwatch key or fob key from the Victorian era, 1880-1900. This brass key was used to wind a pocketwatch and measures 2.5 inches long by .75 inches wide. The oval hand set cabachon shaped goldstone in a bezel was a victorian stone creation and very popular, measures 1.25 inches long by .6 inches wide. The key is all over engine turned in a swirls or circles design and marked with the manufacturers name. The mark in script is Lancaster W Co. Penna for Lancaster Watch Compnay, Pennsylvania USA. I got it in England, but it is American made. The key is in very good condition with light scratching on the goldstone surface commensurate with normal use as a pocketwatch fob. A great piece. Nowadays, these keys make great pendants. Shipping in the US by USPS priority insured is $8.50.
