A striking antique French pendant crafted in rich 18ct gold and adorned with exquisite enamel work. The outer border displays a vibrant deep-purple enamel, beautifully contrasted by the red enamel of the central octagonal panel. At the heart sits a finely executed white-gold design, likely depicting delicate diamond set Lily of the Valley flowers—an enduring symbol of sweetness, luck, and the return of happiness.
The craftsmanship is superb, and the pendant survives in wonderful condition, retaining crisp detail and glowing colour throughout. It bears the French hallmark for 18ct gold at the top and comes presented in its original pink box, a charming and rare addition that completes the piece. A truly special example of French artistry.
