AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This square pendant, highlighted by a flat olive-green ribbon, exhibits a bold and refined style. The visible side of the jewelry reveals a square glass cabochon with slightly rounded corners, whose dominant hue is a bright yellow. The glass displays a transparency effect and internal silver inclusions, reminiscent of the silver leaf technique typical of Murano glasswork. The frame, thin and discreet, surrounds the cabochon and offers a sober finish, allowing the central piece to take center stage.

The pendant is suspended from a textile ribbon, whose woven texture and green color add a retro and sophisticated touch to the ensemble. The bail-type clasp is dark and blends into the overall design without diverting attention from the worked glass. The contrast between the transparency of the yellow, the internal silver reflections, and the dark setting contributes to the elegance of the piece.

The surface of the cabochon shows a pattern of craquelure or internal leaves, characteristic of artisanal Murano glass creations. The visual aspect recalls vintage jewelry from the 1950s to 1970s, with an aesthetic that is both timeless and assertive. No logo, engraving, or mark is visible on the photographed side.

The presentation on a light background, framed by a richly adorned gold frame, accentuates the precious and decorative side of the pendant. The play of shadows on the image highlights the transparency of the glass and emphasizes the depth of the silver inclusions.

Condition

Used item sold as is. The visible surface of the pendant shows no major apparent defects in the photo (no notable chips, cracks, or scratches). The ribbon appears to be in good condition, with no visible fraying.

Did you know? Murano glass is renowned for its techniques of incorporating silver or gold leaf, a process perfected in Venice since the 15th century. These inclusions are achieved by inserting thin metal leaves between two layers of molten glass, creating unique light effects and a wide variety of internal patterns.
