gorgeous Art Nouveau locket features a Byzantine lady enameled in a
translucent enamel with a diamond and emerald headband and an enameled

famous for their enameled pieces. The Alling and the 14k mark is on the bail
but is quite worn. The locket has both metal and glass inserts. The back
has been beautifully engraved with the initials RAC. Condition is
excellent for this very hard to find Art Nouveau locket.

lovely and very hard to find Art Nouveau enameled brooch features a
beautiful Byzantine lady with a diamond, ruby and enameled head dress
accented with a pearl border around the brooch. The translucent enamel
is in excellent condition. The brooch also functions as a watch pin
and could easily be converted into a pendant by your jeweler like the piece
below (item # 1129). This motif was frequently made by the Alling Co.,
however this piece is only marked 14k. The brooch measures 1 1/8ths
inches in diameter and has it's original "C" clasp and watch hook
attachment. Condition is very good with no damage or repairs.

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.

place for two photos. The locket does not have any glass or metal
rings to hold the photos and I do not think it ever did have them. One
the front are the bare remnants of what looks to have been a braided metal
ring around the outer rim of the locket that has been removed. A good
jeweler could easily remove the small remaining portion. The locket is in
very good condition and retains the original patina.
