Opening Medallion 3 Diamonds Acanthus Leaves Yellow/rose Gold, Napoleon III Sentiment Jewel

Napoleon III period opening pendant in 750/°° yellow and pink gold (18 KT, eagle's head hallmark) very representative of its era by its workmanship and its volume. Its base, soberly made of smooth yellow gold, is enhanced with acanthus leaf motifs applied around its perimeter, made of pink gold. These acanthus leaf motifs are very represented in Napoleon III jewelry and correspond to the marked taste of the time for neo-classicism. Here they constitute a frame to highlight three old-cut diamonds, set in a line, in the center of the medallion. These diamonds, soberly set closed, are sufficient by their very beautiful quality, their very white color, and their lively brilliance, to adorn this otherwise extremely sober and stripped-down jewel. The medallion opens to offer two separate compartments, one of which is closed by a plexiglass glass. This medallion belongs to the category of sentimental jewelry, which allows you to carry a memory, a photo, etc. close to you...
