A beautiful antique French Art Nouveau pendant dating from the Belle Époque period, crafted in traditional FIX rolled gold and decorated with elegant stylised flowers set with deep ruby-red stones.
The design is quintessentially Art Nouveau, with flowing whiplash curves, naturalistic floral forms and organic lines inspired by nature. The warm gold-toned finish contrasts beautifully with the rich red stones, creating a delicate and highly wearable piece of antique French jewellery.
Marked FIX to the reverse, indicating the high-quality French rolled-gold process that became renowned throughout Europe for its durability and luxurious appearance. These pieces were often produced by skilled French jewellers as an affordable alternative to solid gold and are now highly sought after by collectors of Belle Époque and Art Nouveau jewellery.
A charming and authentic piece that would look wonderful worn on a fine chain or displayed as part of a French jewellery collection.
