AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This antique pendant depicts a stylized cross with a distinct geometric shape, typical of 1950s design. The piece features a central circular opening, adding a modernist and graphic touch to the overall design. The visible side has a patinated metallic finish, with a slightly textured surface marked by fine cracks and irregularities, testifying to its age and authenticity. The clean contours and sharp edges accentuate the structured character of this retro piece of jewelry.

The pendant is fitted with a solid suspension ring, integrated into the upper part, allowing it to be easily attached to a chain or cord. The dominant color is an aged metal tone, oscillating between matte gold and silver, with visible areas of oxidation and patina, highlighting its vintage style. No additional decorative motifs, stones, or engravings are present on the observed side, reinforcing the minimalist and brutalist aspect of the piece.

The cross stands out with balanced proportions, with arms of identical width and a solid structure. The central round cutout creates an interesting play of light and lightens the silhouette of the jewelry, while giving it a strong graphic identity. This deadstock model (old stock never worn) is ideal for display in a retro jewelry collection or as a statement piece for a contemporary outfit.
