About the Item

This beautiful pendant necklace is a wonderful and rare example of Art Nouveau carved horn jewellery. It is unsigned. Condition Report: Excellent The Details... This necklace features a pendant detailed with a fuchsia motif created from carved horn. The pendant is accented with hand-painting. As is typical of Art Nouveau horn necklaces, the pendant is suspended from silk thread and the necklace is detailed with green glass beads - two round beads on the thread and a teardrop suspended from the pendant. The necklace measures 94cm in length. The pendant measures 9cm x 4cm. A Short History... The jewellery of the Art Nouveau movement took its inspiration from the natural world and organic forms - flowers were a particularly popular motif and can be seen in this piece. Horn was utilised extensively in French jewellery creation during the early 1900s and was carved to fashion pendants, brooches and hair accessories. This pendant is most likely French in origin too. Wear it With... Wear this pendant with silk and pastels to compliment the tones in the horn pendant.

c.1900 Jugendstil Antique Paste and Red Glass Pendant
Located in Skelmersdale, GB
This beautiful pendant was probably created in Austria in c.1900. Condition Report: Excellent The Details... This pendant is constructed from gilded metal. It features a typically abstract, but organic, Jugendstil design. It is set with an oval shaped, open-back, red glass stone and round, colourless, multi-faceted paste stones. It measures 7cm x 4.75cm. A Short History... The term Jugendstil, meaning "Young Style," was derived from the magazine Die Jugend and describes an art and design movement which took place in Germany from c.1896 through to c.1915. Taking place at the same time as the Art Nouveau movement, which was inspired by the natural world, Jugendstil was also heavily influenced by organic shapes but contrasted them with geometric forms resulting in very stylised designs. Important Jugendstil jewellery designers were Carl Herman, Meyle and Mayer...

1920s Egyptian Revival Silver Gilt and Enamel Vintage Charms Necklace
Located in Skelmersdale, GB
This beautiful necklace is emblematic of the evocative 1920s Egyptian Revival aesthetic and was made in France. Condition Report: Very Good - A slight kink in the chain and a tiny bend at the base of one of the charms. This is consistent with age and use and does not detract from the appeal of the piece. The Details... Although un-hallmarked, this necklace is most likely constructed from silver gilt. It features a delicate herringbone chain. Suspended from the chain is a selection of Egyptian inspired charms. There are Ankhs, Lotus flowers and Hamsa hand symbols. There are also three postage stamp charms detailed with skiff boats on the Nile and the goddess, Hathor. The necklace fastens with a bolt ring and measures 38cm in length. A Short History... In 1922, Howard Carter discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun and, thereby, ignited a Western fascination with Ancient Egypt which permeated the Arts.
