Napoleon III Monogram Opening Medallion Fine Pearls And Rubies / Yellow Gold, Sentimental Jewel

Napoleon III period opening medallion pendant in 750°° yellow gold (18 KT, eagle's head hallmark), very representative of its era by its volume and its workmanship. It is soberly decorated in its center with a monogram embellished with a gradient of fine pearls in the oriental style and characteristic colors, as well as a line of rubies. The base of the medallion is finely chiseled with hatching, both on its front and on its back. The edge left polished shiny brings contrast and shine to the jewel. The reverse of the medallion offers a soft and satiny touch due to its fine chiseling (note: the color variations are only optical illusions created by the hatching). The medallion opens to offer two separate compartments, one or the other of which can be closed by a plexiglass glass circled in gold. The opening and handling of these different elements is facilitated by thumb pieces present on each of them. This medallion belongs to the category of sentimental jewelry, which allows you to carry a memory, a photo, etc. close to you (Presented on a round yellow gold jaseron chain sold separately, available in our store under the reference ES6101, and a watch chain not included).
