Marcus & Co. Plique-à-jour Enamel and Peridot Necklace

Creator: Marcus & Co.
Offered by: Macklowe Gallery, Ltd

Description
Designed around 1904, this plique-à-jour enamel, peridot and pearl necklace is mounted in 18K gold. The necklace is composed of a lobed pendant and shaped elements of pale green plique-à-jour enamel highlighted by cabochon peridots and pearls, with festoon chains and fringe of peridot beads and pearls, with scrolling and chased gold elements throughout. A significant and orginal creation of an innovative American firm at its height, this beautifully draped necklace with its subtle color palette speaks to its inspiration by the Parisian Art Nouveau and its sophisticated design and workmanship.
