Below Her Surface

elva

There's a depth to you, and we admire it. Similarly, we've always adored champlevé enamel, showing engraved decoration below its colorful glassy surface. We recently found this antique brass, glass-jeweled, and enameled pendant at a favorite flea market early one morning, and fell instantly for the fleur-de-lis pattern below the lobed enameled cartouche at center. Allowing the pendant to be the main event, we paired the pendant with a triple-strand of polished black onyx beads, their glossy finish an ideal accompaniment for the enamel decoration. Measures 18" in length with a gilt copper clasp at back.
