Antique 18K, Silver & Emerald Giardinetti Pendant

Giardinetti, or ornamental floral jewelry was popular during the Georgian Era. Flower motifs were incorporated into brooches, rings and pendants using skilled metal work and precious gems as well as paste. The pieces were given as love tokens to sweethearts and friends.

Beautifully executed in 18 karat yellow gold and silver, this stunning piece is an intricately woven little flower basket with emerald blossoms, golden leaves and a wonderful, lavish bow at the bale, which is attached to the braided handle of the basket. A romantic and special adornment for your favorite chain or velvet ribbon!
