Antique Miniature Portrait with an 18-Karat Yellow Gold Frame & Fitted Case

About the Item

This well executed miniature portrait was made in England in approximately 1900 in the period Edwardian style and comes with its original fitted leather case. The painting is unsigned and there is no notation to identify the subject, but the artistry is masterful in the execution of the portrait. The frame is also unmarked but tests for 18-karat yellow gold and the box is stamped inside the cover "Goldsmiths" "H. Pidduck & Sons, Hanley", who were extremely well respected gold and silversmiths since 1841. The framed portrait itself measures 3.75 inches high by 3 inches wide and a quarter of an inch deep, and could be fastened to a chain and worn as a pendant.
