The visible side reveals a complex filigree design, punctuated by geometric embossed patterns and small golden beads. At its center, a large, deep red \"ruby\" effect round cabochon draws the eye, faceted to reflect light. Around this central heart, an openwork frieze holds eight set transparent rhinestones, providing a luminous contrast and accentuating the retro style of the piece. The bail, also crafted, features embossed patterns matching those of the pendant, highlighting the stylistic coherence of the jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition of the front face highlights the alternation between the dominant red color of the central cabochon and the brilliance of the peripheral rhinestones. The colored enamel appears to be applied to the cabochon, creating an effect of depth and intensity. The ensemble evokes costume jewelry from the 60s to 70s, characterized by bold volumes, an oriental inspiration, and an exuberance in material effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVisual Details\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe openwork metal gives an impression of lightness despite the imposing size of the pendant.

The general condition of the jewelry, in the photo, shows a homogeneous patina and some micro-traces of wear consistent with its presumed age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStyle and Inspiration\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis type of round pendant, with openwork decoration and a central cabochon, is emblematic of vintage costume creations, often inspired by Oriental or Byzantine jewelry.
