Beautiful 1900s Australian Art Nouveau 9ct Gold
Aquamarine Tulip Pendant Necklace
This
is a wonderful art nouveau choker length pendant necklace for a petite lady or
girl. It has a hard to read mark of Australian pictorial “9ct” mark for 375 rose
gold fineness. We estimate that it was made around the late 1890s through the
early 1900s.
It
is made up of two lengths of fine cable link chain with a tongue and slot
barrel clasp. The chains attach to two
bales at the top of a central open work pendant with scrolls fashioned to
resemble a tulip flower. This is set with a small seed pearl at is centre and
three round facet cut pale aquamarines in round claw settings on stalks at the
top of the petals. Suspended, below on a bar, is a matching aquamarine with a slightly
paler, near clear, tone.
