ABOUT THIS ACCESSORY

When it's time to powder your nose, you might as well do it in style and cause a stir. No one will notice the sheen on your face when you open this magnificent compact by Italian designer, Mario Buccellati. A beautifully patinated gold background is lavishly hand engraved and decorated with a pomegranate tree. Its textured white gold branches extend from a diamond-set trunk and bear a profusion of shimmering leaves and fruit that reveals tiny glimmering blue sapphire "seeds." Molto bello! Decorative engraving on the back adds the final delightful detail to this artful accessory. Mid-20th Century. Total diamond weight, .50 carat; total sapphire weight, 1.50 carats. Rendered in 18K two-tone gold. Measures three inches in diameter.

About Mid-Century Jewelry

Mid-Century jewelers gave the Victorians a run for their money when it came to variety—with the added bonus of big, bold gems in every shape, size, and color. Themes of previous eras were made fabulous enough to match the optimism of the post-war world. Transitional pieces bridged the gap between the first and second half of the 20th century.

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.
