Vintage natural agate pendant, retro triangle, large stone slice jewelry

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This vintage pendant features a rounded triangular shape, cut from what is described as natural agate. The stone has a polished appearance with subtle shades of brown, ochre, and translucent red, revealing a slight play of light characteristic of agates. The stone slice offers a smooth finish on the visible side, without facets or engraved decoration.

The pendant is pierced at its top and fitted with a circular metal bail, allowing it to be worn on a chain or cord. The silver-toned clasp discreetly contrasts with the warmth of the stone. The ensemble evokes a typical retro style, with an imposing and sleek piece, true to the costume jewelry creations of past decades.

The main surface, clearly visible in the photo, shows no additional decorative motifs or inscriptions. A slight color gradient is discernible, ranging from reddish-brown to translucent beige, classic for a slice of natural agate. Light passing through the stone highlights its translucency and subtle internal veins.

This pendant has a deliberately sober look, highlighting the raw material and geometric shape. The massive design and simplicity of the cut reinforce the retro effect, recalling jewelry trends of the 70s and 80s, where semi-precious stones cut into free forms were widely featured.

Used item sold as is. The visible stone surface shows a beautiful polished appearance, with no chips or scratches apparent in the photo. The clasp appears to be in good working order, with no visible signs of oxidation. Please refer to the photo for the precise appearance and general condition.
