DESCRIPTION: Offered for sale is a rare 1980's Silver Pendant of the Tennis Player in action position striking the ball. Issued for only a short time during the late 1970's/early 1980's. Considered by many collectors to be some of the most beautiful of the Golly items issued by Robertsons, the way the silver detailing has been carefully crafted to show through the transparent enamel is clearly the work of a master craftsman.
BACKSTAMP: Markings from the Silversmith ARI Norman 'ARI STERLING 925 in shield). Clearly stamped. All characters visible and legible.
CONDITION: Offered for sale in good condition. The enamel is very clean on the front, but please note, there is a small area of enamel damage to golly's right hand, arem and racket handle. Due to the location of the enamel loss it is not particularly obvious but clearly visible upon close inspection. Having said that it is a nice example of this rare item. The metal to reverse is bright and clean.
See photos for full details. Multiple high quality images shows the badge from different angles.
