Victorian Polychrome Enamel Woman's portrait set in 18KY gold and diamonds

Description : There are some pieces of jewelry that are just stunning examples of workmanship and style. This is one of them. The details in this piece are extraordinary. The term polychrome means 'many colors' and the technique is exceedingly difficult and in this piece the colors and work are pristine. The diamonds encircle the image and are set in a miligrain channel surrounding an almost virginal depiction of a young woman in traditional garb. This pendant is a treasured heirloom from the late 19th Century dated approximately 1890.
