The engraved designs on both are of the type started in the Aesthetic period, 2nd half of the 19th century, and continued in the early years of the 20th century.</p><p>The stone of the fob in the link is called Pounamu, Greenstone, Maori or New Zealand jade. All the same names for a green nephrite jade found on the South Island of New Zealand.</p><p>In the 19th and early 20th century, most gold items with NZ jade were made in Australia, in 9ct gold or in silver. In Australia the Aesthetic motifs were still used in the 1920s.</p><p>I think your fob could be slightly older than the one in the link, but can&#039;t tell for sure if it is NZ jade. Could you take a photo where you hold it against the light, so we can see the translucency?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
