Art Deco Vintage Madonna Plique-a-Jour Enamel Pendant
About the Item
Spain, circa 1930
This ornate Art Deco era 18K gold and platinum pendant features a carved bone bust of praying Madonna shaded with purple, brown and gold paint. The carving is executed in Spanish medieval taste.
The pendant is designed to resemble a double arched medieval window. The depiction of Madonna is set against a shaded blue plique a jour enamel background and flanked by two stylized Art Deco shells.
Plique-à-jour (French for “letting in daylight”) is a vitreous enamelling technique which resembles stained glass. The technique was especially popular in the 1890s and early 1900s.
The gold bezel and bail are accented with small platinum inserts set with old cut diamonds.
The enamel is in excellent condition. The paint on bone is rubbed.
The pendant measures without bail 40 x 33 mm (1 5/8 x 1 5/16 in.)

Rare Art Nouveau Burmese Spinel Diamond Antique Pendant
Located in Chicago, IL
This rare pendant was made in Saint Petersburg between 1904 and 1908 by Carl Blank, jeweler of the Russian Imperial Court and Tsar Nicholas II. The pendant is finely crafted in matte platinum (front) and 14K gold (back). It features two excellent red spinels from Burma accented by old mine cut diamonds. The spinels were tested by Swiss Gemmological Institute in Basel (test report no. 87913) and found to be natural and untreated. Estimated total spinel weight is 2.70 carats. Approximate total diamond weight is 3.18 carats. In the early 1900s, platinum was an exotic metal. In Russia, it was rarely used in jewelry (not until 1930s). Apparently only jewelers of the Imperial court like Faberge, Bolin and Blank experimented with platinum. Marked on frame with 56 zolotnik old Russian gold standard (there was no mark for platinum at that time) and on bail with maker’s initials ‘ CB’ for Carl Blank, St. Petersburg assay mark with initials ‘AP’ for assay master Alexander Romanov...
