Art Nouveau Enameled
Lady and Flowers Gold Brooch/Watch Pin This wonderful
Art Nouveau brooch features a beautifully enameled lady with lovely coral
flowers in her hair that are accented with diamonds and pearls. The
brooch measures 1 inch in diameter and is marked 10k on the fittings.
At some point the original "C" clasp was replaced in period with a safety
clasp that is marked 10k, however I have the same brooch in 14k and suspect
this is also 14k. I guarantee this to be at least 10k. There are
three diamond accents (two in the flowers and one in her hair) and two areas
set with seed pearls. Overall condition is very good. There is
one very small area of wear on one of the flowers . This would be a
easy repair, however I chose to leave that option to the new owner.
The pearls have light wear consistent with the age of the brooch. This
is a very hard to find enameled brooch of the period and one I have only
seen a couple of times in all my years of collecting.

Art Nouveau Byzantine
Lady Diamond 14k Locket This gorgeous large Art Nouveau locket
features a very three dimensional Mucha style lady with a Byzantine
look. Her elaborate headband is set with diamonds and her necklace
is set with a single red stone (ruby or garnet, hard to tell). The
unusual aspects of this lovely piece is the pose of the lady, her full
face and not a profile as you frequently see with lockets of the
period. The locket measures 1 3/8ths inches in diameter (not
including loop and bale) and has it's original metal and protective
inserts. The back has not been engraved and the locket is in good
working order. There is a slight area of wear on her nose that only
visible on really close inspection (easily repairable if you desire)
and a few areas of light wear on the back. Guaranteed to be
14k (unmarked, tested) and the overall condition is very good on this most
desirable period locket.

Porcelain Rose Diamond Pearl 14k Pendant Locket Brooch Stunning
large hand painted enamel on porcelain featuring a lovely lady (goddess)
holding a dove and roses with a cherub hovering next to her. The

fitting detaches (and folds over) so the pendant can be worn alone. The

of pearls. Large size, measuring 2 3/4 inches by 1 1/4
inches. The back has it's original glass covered locket.
Tested to be 14k and is in very good condition with no damage or
