Neo-renaissance Pendant, 19th, Silver, Enamel, Precious Stones

NEO-RENAISSANCE PENDANT
Crafted in 925 silver, this exquisite pendant features an intricate design of interlaced openwork scrolls enameled in shades of blue, green, and white. At its heart stands a captivating figure of a woman adorned in a flowing gown enameled in green and blue, gracefully extending a crown towards a hunter positioned to her left. The hunter aims his weapon at the portrait of a man placed in symmetry to the right, both figures now missing. The pendant is adorned with sparkling rubies, emeralds, and diamonds of old cut or table cut, and embellished with three dangling pearls, two of which are imitation and one is cultured.

Dimensions of the pendant : 6,5 x 4,3 cm approx.
Weight : 16,7 g (silver – 925/1000, swan hallmark).

Condition :
This pendant is very likely a reproduction of Renaissance jewelry, made in Austria-Hungary, where Neoclassicism was particularly fashionable in the 19th century. The depicted scene is typical of the period, and similar motifs can be found on other pendants from this time. However, our example has two missing elements: the figure of the shooter and his target. Additionally, it should be noted that there is a small chip on one of the emeralds.
