Refined Art Deco pendant, circa 1920, depicting Mary in slight pale relief against a vivid green background, framed by seed pearls and rose-cut diamonds. Its arched shape and subtle contrast give it both presence and intimacy, while the sacred image lends it a gentle evocation of faith, tenderness, and remembrance.
- Type of jewelry: pendant.
- Condition: very good condition.
- Country of origin: unknown.
- Style: Art Deco.
- Style characteristics: abstract motifs and geometric shapes are typical of the Art Deco period. Art Deco moved away from the soft pastels and organic forms of Art Nouveau, incorporating influences from many styles and movements of the early twentieth century, including neoclassicism, constructivism, cubism, modernism, and futurism. Its popularity peaked in Europe during the Roaring Twenties and continued in the United States in the 1930s. Although many design movements have political or philosophical roots or intentions, Art Deco was essentially decorative.
- Period: circa 1920.
- Source of inspiration: Christianity.
- Theme: Mary. This pendant appears to depict the Virgin Mary Virgin Mary in profile, holding a lily, a flower traditionally associated with purity, innocence, and devotion. The image has the calm and reverent character often present in devotional jewelry, where Mary is not represented dramatically, but as a gentle and protective presence. In this jewel, the theme seems to unite faith, tenderness, and silent contemplation in a small, intimate ornamental object.
- Material: platinum, tested with a touchstone.
- Technique: this pendant appears to use a relief effect similar to a cameo rather than a hand-carved cameo. The figure seems to have been formed in pressed glass or a glass-like material, creating the appearance of a cameo through contrast, profile, and softly modeled relief.
- Diamonds: fifteen rose-cut diamonds. The diamond weight is unknown, which is customary in the trade for rose cuts.
- All diamonds in our antique jewelry and vintage jewelry, regardless of their size or shape, are verified by the IJGC laboratory as natural.
- Gemstones: sixteen seed pearls.
- Birthstones: diamond is the birthstone for April and pearl for June.
- Monogramme: intertwined monogramme formed by the letters N and P, the stem of the P placed on the right upright of the N.
- Hallmarks: no trace.
- Dimensions: 3.80 cm x 2.46 cm.
- Weight: 5.50 g.
