J.W. Benson Ltd. was a prominent family-based company of London watch and clockmakers during the Victorian era, also producing a variety of fine gold and silver jewelry. Although the family had been producing watches since 1749, James William Benson and his brother Samuel Suckley Benson formed a working partnership in 1847. In 1855, James continued the business under his own name. During its years in business, J.W. Benson Ltd. was employed by several royal commissioners, including Queen Victoria, the Prince of Wales, the Russian Tsar, and several other royal families. The company also acted as the official watchmaker to the Admiralty and the War Department. After his death in 1878, James William Benson's sons James, Alfred, and Arthur continued the family business. The company had several English premises and later developed its own factory of manufacture. A longstanding name in watchmaking history, J.W. Benson Ltd. thrived several generations, eventually selling to the Royal jewelers Garrads in 1973. This spectacular five locket necklace was produced by J.W. Benson Ltd. during the Early Victorian (ca1856) era! This substantial necklace is crafted in 15kt gold and features five matching garnet lockets, which hang in a festoon style from two strands of snake chain. Set within the face of each locket is a large garnet cabochon...

The "Saint Esprit" is historically a Christian symbol (meaning "Holy Spirit" in French) that is represented in the form of a dove. Worn by Protestants and Catholics alike, the Saint Esprit dove in jewelry form can be traced back to pieces dating as early as the mid 1700s. It became very popular in France during the 18th century, and was often worn by peasant women in cross designs that incorporated either real gemstones or French paste. The dove itself is highly symbolic in many cultures and faiths, widely recognized as a representation of peace, love, or fidelity. Although the Saint Esprit is still used in modern jewelry designs today, the antique pieces that have been passed through generations have now become especially desirable! A truly stunning Saint Esprit dove necklace from the early Victorian era (ca1850)! Made of 18kt yellow gold, the necklace incorporates a diamond encrusted Saint Esprit pendant...
