The object has a very graphic cutout shape, characteristic of 1950s design, and offers a naive and endearing effect, typical of costume jewelry from that period. The rounded and thick upper bail suggests it can be worn as a pendant, but the piece can also be appreciated as a decorative object or ornamental accessory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pendant's surface has a patinated metallic appearance, with silvery-gray nuances and slight traces of oxidation visible from certain angles, highlighting the piece's age and authenticity. The edges are slightly irregular, suggesting a cutting process typical of artisanal or semi-industrial productions from the mid-20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe motif represents a boy and a girl, full-length, minimally stylized, holding hands and sharing a kiss. The design is deliberately refined, without superfluous details, which accentuates the retro and universal effect of the scene. The girl's hair, in relief, is suggested by a side curl, while the boy has a round, smooth head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe finish has a pronounced relief, with well-defined contours. The visible side shows no inscription, signature, or distinctive hallmark. The whole evokes both the charm of period jewelry and the decorative spirit of fifties design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe object is photographed on a wooden table, bathed in natural light that highlights the matte and slightly grainy texture of the metal. No chain or attachment elements are visible in this view; only the upper bail is present for potential mounting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis vintage pendant is pre-owned and sold as is.

These creations, often made of non-precious metal, were sold in jewelry stores or gift shops under the mention \"deadstock\" when they had never been worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAFW Reassurance\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour purchase will be carefully packaged and shipped quickly by a professional seller specializing in antique and vintage items.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eKeywords: antique pendant, vintage jewelry, 50s metal, children motif, retro kiss, decorative figurine, deadstock jewelry, fantasy medal, 1950s, vintage pendant, retro jewelry, fifties decor, original gift, romantic jewelry\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AFW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54244551164231,"sku":"203abb64-21a2-4402-b801-035eb1a1997e","price":3.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0989\/5152\/8775\/files\/s-l1600_bae1419d-5fbc-4592-b0a2-36bb6441a631.jpg?v=1782632275","url":"https:\/\/shop.antiquefranceworldwide.com\/en\/products\/pendentif-vintage-metal-1950s-motif-enfants-s-embrassant-bijouterie-deco-retro","provider":"AFW","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
