This distinctive vintage pendant is crafted in a richly detailed Baroque revival style, with flowing openwork scrolls and a central classical mask motif. The design is reminiscent of traditional Florentine silver, often associated with Peruzzi-inspired pieces.
The pendant is tested as approximately 900 silver (slightly under 925) and remains in excellent vintage condition. The front retains a soft patina that enhances the sculptural detail, while the back shows heavier natural patina consistent with age.
Though unsigned, the piece strongly reflects the character and craftsmanship of older Peruzzi-style designs, with dimensional relief and expressive ornamentation.
The pendant is paired with a newer sterling silver rolo chain, marked 925 and measuring 18 inches in length.
