A decorative Austro-Hungarian necklace dating to c.1900, crafted in 800 silver and set throughout with coloured and colourless paste stones. The central pendant is built around a vivid green heart-shaped paste, framed by scrolling silverwork and smaller paste-set leaves, with a pink stone set into the bow above.
The pendant has a fluid articulated construction, suspended beneath a separate bow-shaped drop so that the lower section moves freely as the necklace is worn. Clear paste stones trace the curves and foliate details throughout, while green, pink and amber accents bring additional colour across the design.
Presented in good antique condition.
