This exquisite hand-carved antique ivory rose pendant has the most intricate detail I have encountered in a carved flower! Not only is the full-bloom rose deeply cut with layers of petals, but they furl back upon themselves. The leaves have serrated edges and multiple veins in their centers, the chubby buds show the layers of their young petals in the curled, frisee’ edges, and the stems even have thorns! The deeply dimensional pendant measures 2" high by 1 1/4". The large bail is itself 5/8" high with a generous inner opening of 1/8".
The natural graining can be easily viewed on the bail. The back of the pendant is polished and has some original pricing information in pencil The condition is as excellent as the master carving. The quality suggests the piece may have originated in Dieppe, France, which for centuries was home to artists who possessed legendary ivory-carving skills.
I have included an old-stock 24 ¼" long 12K gold-filled fancy-link chain with a spring-ring clasp. The ivory pendant looks stunning on a simple black ribbon as it may have originally been worn if you should choose to try that too.
