INQUIRE ABOUT THIS ITEM

ABOUT THIS ACCESSORY

Whether you store toothpicks, Q-tips, tiny pills, a secret formula, or nothing whatsoever, this wonderfully exotic appurtenance will never cease to delight and amaze. Dating back to the first or second decade of the twentieth century, the double-sided female form is artfully sculpted in velvety 18K yellow gold with a textured finish, accented in the middle (where she pulls apart) with green gold acanthus leaves and on the sides with subtly contrasting rose gold. Every millimeter of this captivating collectible is intricately detailed with delicate neoclassical design elements. Sensational!

About Art Deco Jewelry

Sleek and modern, Art Deco design brought jewelry into the machine age. Yet these stylish pieces still found room for the fine forms and lines of previous eras within their elegant architecture. In particular, we see many peaceful co-habitations of Edwardian and Art Deco styles together.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
