The composition reflects the Romantic era’s fascination with naturalistic motifs, rendered here with notable intricacy and lightness of touch.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExecuted in gold and platinum the piece makes use of contrasting metals to highlight the basket weave on the main body of the pendant. Platinum was not, in fact, used for the first time in the deco period; while more challenging to work with, platinum (alloyed with gold and silver) does show up in the 19th century many times, such as the look of “tri color gold” that was popular in the romantic period and later in the aesthetic era. A rare and poetic survivor from the Romantic period moment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetails:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Dimensions: 2 1\/4 × 1 1\/4 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Weight: 5.23 grams\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Stones: Emeralds\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Metal: 18ct gold and silver\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Date\/Circa: c. 1840–1850\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Marks: Eagle’s head\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition: Excellent antique condition, commensurate with age and wear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003ePlease view and inspect any photos closely.
