DAISY Garland Figural Chain French Art Nouveau Antique 8g 18k Gold Bow Necklace Drapery Collar Pendants Figural Floral Belle Epoque

ABOUT:

Want to hear what's really special about this one? The backs of each of the daisy flower settings are Engraved! Talk about quality, this is a little detail that would never be seen while wearing but just the added craftsmanship with the leaf and petal texture added to the back side. So fabulous!

This French antique chain is from the Belle Epoque period with little clusters of daisies creating the larger links, leading up to the center daisy which hangs from a bow.

Glowing, rich and buttery 18k gold - adds such a beautiful touch to a neckstack.

I've had a few of these over the years, but never two exactly alike, sometimes they are half flowers, sometimes they are just geometric links. In this case, the daisies would have been used during the period to represent loyalty, purity, innocence and also love and romance... he loves, he loves me not.

Found in France on my recent inventory trip. French hallmarks for 18k gold on the loops.

Any props not included. Please note the measurements as I have small hands and it can be difficult to decipher scale from photos, especially with the zoomed images that I am required to present for detail.

SIZE & MEASUREMENTS:

It weighs a little over grams. It is shorter, a little under 16 1/8 inches in length. The largest panels are 25x12mm to give you an idea of scale.

IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
No real damage, no dents or ripples. The panels are quite thick and sturdy compared to some of the daintier ones I've had. Some antique patina that could be cleaned up further if desired but most of my buyers prefer original patina. It has a rich and warm glow.

Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned and in estate condition. They will have patina, surface wear, a few small nicks. These pieces may also have evidence of a sizing, some build up around the stones and / or inclusions seen under magnification, typical for antique pieces. I have mentioned any noticeable issues above and they are all still wearable and eager to be loved and accepted for many years to come, (the preservation of antique jewelry, even those with signs of their age and history, is important to me. : )
But - Please note due to age, this piece is not in mint condition. Pictures also serve as part of the description and condition report so please utilize the zoom feature which will magnify any wear significantly more than what is visible to the eye while wearing : )
