Description
Rare Russian Art Nouveau pendant with movable pendulum, made of yellow gold 585 / 14 Kt (stamped with Russian Kokoshnik hallmark for 56 Zolotnik).
Elegant pendant runs in the form of a delicate branch with foliage: its leaves are enameled in iridescent shades of green and pink, shimmering as if they were in the sunlight. A movable pendulum protrudes from beneath the leaves, representing another branch with fruit. It is set with three old-cut diamonds, two of them in champagne color, and four egg-shaped natural pearls with delicate pink luster. The diamonds have a combined weight of about 0.5 ct.
A chain of your choice can be threaded through the eyelet of the pendant.
The pendant was created around 1900 in Russia and is a contemporary witness of floral jewelry art in the era of Art Nouveau.
