Directors Notes
Zodiac pendants are hugely popular and the original, vintage ones, like this one from the 1970s are the most coveted. Many of the greatest jewellery houses created their own zodiac ranges, including Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels and these pendants are all of the exceptional quality one would expect of these houses and continue to be particularly collectible today.
