Art Noveau Sterling silver in contemporary setting with diamonds pendant

Description : Known for the 'whiplash' line, Art Noveau was a decorative era from 1890 to 1910. It differed from the Victorian style in several areas of design. The flourishing lines and floral patterns were often suggested rather than actually depicted. The feminine visage was used extensively. This lovely sterling silver pendant is a cast of a woman's face interacting with a bird. This was a theme also often seen during this era. She and the bird are lovingly engaged and could be a description of Leda and the Swan from Greek mythology which has also been referenced throughout history. The setting is a contemporary one that is befitting the style of this pendant, surrounded by gold plating, and encircled with natural diamonds. The seduction of a woman and a bird is one of great mystery.
