This elegant antique lapel was realized in France, circa 1860. It features a circular pendant composed of 18kt yellow gold with crescent moon and star inlaid in starburst guilloche ruby enamel with rose cut diamonds. The watch pendant, inscribed on its perimeter with fine geometric detailing, hangs from a 14kt gold fleur-de-lis lapel brooch with red striated guilloche enamel and seed pearls. With its vibrant palate and beautiful detailing, this piece is as versatile as it is aesthetically compelling. It would be equally well suited worn casual attire or evening wear.
