Made during the 1920’s, this Art Deco pendant illustrates a popular and classical design of jewelry during the era. With airy and delicate styling, this particular piece is unique for its larger, elongated shape that is accented with glass made to simulate aquamarine. The glittering cabochons are in uncommon shapes and framed by a rhodium plate setting, with floral details, that shimmers with refracted light. This piece is fresh looking, it must have been tucked away and well. Taken care of, or worn infrequently. The setting has a bright patina with no darkening, no discoloration or surface wear. The glass is smooth and gleaming without any chipping and a minor amount of surface wear and the faceting is crisp and refractive. There are no irregularities to the setting or signs of solder or repair and the piece has a firm shape. 2 1/2 with bale. Weight 3.5 grams. Material Alloy (does not test for silver content), glass. Color plays a key role in jewelry design and in turn its collectability. Whether natural stones or glass, what exact hue of blue was used, or the combination of colors can tell you what time period a piece was made. Certain shades can be more common during a particular decade, making that piece of jewelry a classic example of the period – or – conversely a vibrant and unique shade might make it quite rare. Antique and vintage styles that are typically seen in small or modest sizes get dramatic attention when theyre found in large, oversized, or bold pieces. These larger versions increase the collectability of a piece. _gsrx_vers_1251 GS 8.2.1 (1251).
