Vtg Art Deco Silver Filigree Carnelian Turquoise Peacock Pendant Necklace
Pairing Collectors with Jewels. This necklace dates from the 1930s Art Deco period. The longer chain means that the necklace hangs fairly low, and tassels at the bottom accentuate that length for a festive Art Deco look. The pendant resembles a peacock, with his tail fanning out behind him. The natural carnelian stone may represent the peacocks face and body as it has a thick and domed cut that juts outward. Tiny natural turquoise stones are dotted within the plumage for subtle bursts of bright blue. The peacock is a symbol in many cultures for protection (the “eyes” in their feathers watching you). The pendant and tassels are intricately designed with filigree spiraling and tiny silver brads. Small filigree spheres at the end of the tassels give a jangling quality to the piece as you move around. 27 1/2 chain, 2 3/8. Mark Tiny silver marks on the bale of pendant. Secure, chain may or may not be original. Material Chain and pendant tests for sterling silver, natural Carnelian and Turquoise. Excellent , there is a little bit of surface wear and chipping to the tiny turquoise which is noticeable only on close inspection.
