Antique jewelry forms and techniques were revived several times over the 20th century. The 1980s in particular saw a return to designs from the supposedly good old days. Antiques were in demand like never before and belonged in the stylish home as a sign of good taste. But not only were old pieces of jewellery worn again, new creations were also created in the spirit of the 19th century. This piece of jewellery, which came to us from the Rhineland, is a typical representative of this fashion. It has a high oval shape and can be worn both as a brooch and a pendant thanks to a brooch on the back and a retractable loop made from 14-karat yellow gold. At its center is an exquisite cameo made of two-tone hardstone. In an unusually fine and detailed cut, we see the portrait of a young lady in profile. Flowers adorn her shoulders and the hair ribbon holding her curly hairstyle in place. In addition, a small bird has perched on her shoulder, seemingly carrying a message. The style is typical of the 1980s. The lady stands out vividly in porcelain-like white against the green background. Excellently crafted and wonderfully detailed, this piece is a stylish eye-catcher with a nostalgic touch.
