Antique French Enamel Portrait Pendant, Seed pearls, Locket Back
About the Item
lockst backside that still retains its glass cover, would hold a lock of hair or an amulet or icon. A bow top and dangled teardrop of ruby set in gold, along with the gem-studded and seed pearl mounted collar frame in the slightly convex French enameled portrait 'painting' of the young woman in country vignette, a' la Romantic era (1700s, per Fragonard, Boucher, etc.,). The large bale up top is amply made to allow for your pearls or seed pearls, or gold or silver chain, velvet ribbon to pass through so you have a great deal of flexibility in creating the look you want with this magnificent Georgian era (Napoleonic era) treasure. The locket backside retains the glass cover and is hinged for ease in putting whatever you like into that recess. Perhaps a lock of hair, or the sand from the beach where you spent your honeymoon, or whatever memento suits you. At listing time, the locket part is empty of all contents. It is about 3/16" deep, thereabouts. Our photos show it well, and I've added a scan so you can see how truly fine the enamel work is, also. One of the finest antique jewelry pieces you'll ever find on the internet, and of course you find it at Antiques & Uncommon Treasure.
