Amethyst and pearl necklace
This charming pendant really encapsulates the style of the Art Nouveau period, that reached its apogee in the late 19th - early 20th century. The scrolling details give it a very naturalistic feel and its delicate form creates a balanced shape. The integral chain is accented by the inclusion of a round cut amethyst that finishes off the piece with a nice flourish.
Englsih - c.1905
