Belle Epoque Art Nouveau brooch in 18 KT yellow gold (eagle's head hallmark), representing an eagle with widely spread wings in full flight, decorated with a pretty fine pearl suspended from its beak, and mobile.

The effect of volume and the highlighting of the bird are accentuated by a beautiful matte patina....This beautiful work of sculpture and these finishes offer a very realistic, dynamic and airy rendering, and make this brooch a very representative jewel of the Art Nouveau period. The back of the brooch offers the possibility of wearing the jewel also as a pendant by adding two rings following the curves of the wings of the top of the jewel. On its lower part, a large hook made it possible to hang a collar watch, according to the custom of the time.
