ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

With her head proudly lifted high, a lovely, regal, yet theatrical lady is presented in profile bedecked with a ruby crown, a diamond earring, and a double strand of tiny golden beads in this exquisite and enchanting original Art Nouveau locket pendant - circa 1900. Surrounded by hand-engraved leaves, her skin is subtly colored with shimmering enamel, while her golden locks curl around her face and neck. The locket opens to reveal a double photo compartment and suspends from an 18 inch chain. Hand crafted in 14K gold.

About Art Nouveau Jewelry

Looking to go organic? Bummed out (with good reason) by the Industrial Revolution, Art Nouveau makers embraced the natural world and a return to the hand-craftsmanship of an earlier time. Their overlap with both the Victorian and Edwardian eras resulted in a great deal of cross-pollination. Though relatively short in its purest form, Art Nouveau’s flowing lines continued to weave their way into fine jewelry.

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.
