30s I believe by the stone mounting process.. Clasp has been changed. Stone is most likely glass. I would advise taking it by your local jeweler.

Obsidian can be used in jewelry to great effect. After all it is volcanic glass.

Do you think it has any value? Thanks for the info!!

I think it's a little earlier than the Art Deco era (30s) and would consider the Art Nouveau (Victorian) era for this piece.

I've been looking at examples of each for a while now and think the late 1890s to early 1910s is a good place to start.

I would not know about value... you need the stone looked at... there must be a makers-mark on it someplace?

onyx stone or volcanic "obsiden" glass if its victorian are good bets as is "plain "black glass" as well.

Is it gold or brass?

 

[tattooedmomma]
