Antique Art Nouveau foliate design pendant and brooch. This 14 carat pendant and brooch is exquisitely designed. The shape is very fluid looking with a wider outer edge. To the interior is a three leafed design terminating at a single bezel set old European cut diamond. On each side is a blue sapphire with curving wire work which flares into an elegant set of leaves. At the bottom is an articulated small seed pearl drop. To the back is a brooch fitting and a pendant loop is hidden at the top, unnoticeable when this is worn as a brooch. Circa early 20th century, possibly Continental European in origin.
In very good condition, wear to the nacre on the seed pearl, nothing else of note.
