This is a lovely example, in beautifully crafted Sterling Silver, of a stylised 'Cornucopia' - a lucky pendant/charm worn to attract abundance. In classical antiquity, the cornucopia was also called the 'horn of plenty', and was a symbol of fertility, abundance and nourishment. It was represented by a large horn-shaped container overflowing with produce, flowers or nuts. In the USA, the cornucopia is associated with Thanksgiving.

I have had this pendant/charm since the 1990s - reluctant sale as I have so much jewellery and have had luck in the fertility stakes. Time to pass it on. Age has given it some oxidisation marks, which I think adds to its character. 

Shown here on our Rhodium plated Silver Curb Chain (sold separately).
