Antique Art Nouveau 14K gold lavalier pendant with seed pearl flowers and a dangling freshwater pearl, dating to approximately 1890–1910.
We fell for the delicacy of this piece. Fine yellow gold wirework forms a graceful, symmetrical frame, with organic curves, shamrock inspired leaves, and tiny pearls tucked into the floral details. A freshwater river pearl hangs below, giving the pendant just a little movement.
It has all the romance of late Victorian and Edwardian jewelry in a design that still feels beautiful to wear today. Slip it onto a fine chain for a wedding or special occasion, or wear it simply because a piece this lovely deserves to come out of the jewelry box.
