Les Saisons necklace

Let's travel in time to Paris in the era of Art Deco. Parisian jewellery factory producing high quality, intricately detailed brass stampings with spaces ready for 37 rhinestones. In November 2022 I find the stampings from Puces de Vanves market.

Antique Art Deco (1920s-30s) brass stamping (size 3cm in diameter) is turned into a unique pendant. The shape resembles a flower or even a mandala. I wanted to choose colours that remind me of the 1930s and also symbolise the four seasons with a tone for each of them. The quartet of Austrian Primero crystals is as follows: a light "peridot green" for Spring, a very light rose tone called "silk" for Summer, a deeper "rose peach" for Autumn and the luscious "palace green opal" for Winter.  I have arranged and set them carefully by hand.

The vintage (previously unused) steel chain is also adorned with a few crystals, wrapped on the chain with silver wire. The chain looks delicate but is nothing of the sort, but extremely durable and will not tarnish.

Length of the necklace is adjustable, 45cm + 4cm extension for versatility.

Please note that this is a rare piece. Three such necklaces were made but only one is remaining now. It is a mesmerising treasure that you are sure to love forever.

I am giving a guarantee for the crystals in case any of them ever fall off. I have carefully set them one by one with the appropriate crystal glue, by hand. I advise you to handle the necklace with gentle care, so that when you are not wearing it, keep it safe in its pouch and separate from other jewellery to avoid scratching.
