Antique Art Nouveau Dog Portrait Pendant in 18K Gold and Mother of Pearl - Signed

Step into a world of elegance with this exquisite antique pendant, a true testament to craftsmanship and sentimentality.

This remarkable piece features a hand-painted portrait of two beloved terriers, their expressive eyes and detailed fur captured with delicate brushstrokes upon a luminous mother-of-pearl background. The natural iridescence of the shell adds a soft, ethereal glow to the painting, enhancing its lifelike charm. Encased within an opulent gold frame, adorned with intricate scrolling flourishes and a delicate bow motif, this pendant exudes timeless sophistication.

The reverse reveals a beautifully segmented mother-of-pearl backing, divided by elegant golden curvatures, allowing light to dance across its surface. Likely a cherished keepsake from the late 19th or early 20th century, this piece speaks to a time when jewelry was not just an accessory, but a deeply personal memento.

Whether worn as a statement of love for faithful companions or displayed as an objet dart, this pendant is a treasure steeped in history and sentiment.
