Vintage round engraved metal pendant 1950 foliage motif antique jewelry

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This antique pendant features a flat round shape with an aged metallic finish. On the visible side, the jewelry is decorated with a finely engraved central motif, representing a stylized bouquet of leaves or ears of corn, framed by a border of small arc-shaped engravings arranged around the medallion. The surface has a matte texture, punctuated by slight irregularities that emphasize its handcrafted and vintage character.

The pendant has a circular hole at the top, allowing it to be suspended on a chain, cord, or suitable bail. The main motif, inspired by plants, evokes the style of 1950s costume jewelry, with a simple and geometric design, typical of the aesthetics of that period. The engraved outlines are clean, and the depth of the engraving gives the whole piece a three-dimensional effect.

The visible metal color is an aged bronze tone, with gray and golden nuances depending on the angle of the light. The visible side bears no inscriptions or identifiable marks. The overall decoration is understated and highlights the manual engraving work.

The pendant is presented alone in the photograph, without a chain or additional accessories. Its natural patina testifies to prolonged storage without use, characteristic of deadstock in antique jewelry. The overall appearance suggests a piece of costume jewelry designed for everyday or ornamental use at the time.

This type of vintage engraved metal pendant is appreciated for its versatility, as it can be worn on a necklace or mounted as a bag accessory or keychain, depending on preference.
