Beautiful, vintage, hand painted porcelain pendant made into a wearable necklace. One one of my designs where I took a porcelain disc, which had no setting revised it to make it wearable art.
The neck chain is strung with natural baroque drop freshwater pearl beads that have a slight pink color to them which pick up the pink shades in the hand painted roses. The painting on the porcelain is lovely and professionally executed. Being an expert china painter myself I always buy china painted beauties in whatever form I find them, and this is an excellent piece.
I am a professional porcelain artist, have been represented in art galleries and shows, won awards and my work has been featured in various publications. I also have taught seminars on my particular style of painting porcelain so I really do know what I'm talking about here, lol~ I added a photo of one of my award winning paintings, a 16" diameter charger, below the necklace pictures. It is NOT for sale here, just used as verification of the previous info.
So, with that out of the way...
This pendant has been hand painted in an impressionistic naturalistic style, the artist has captured the beauty of roses in full bloom complete with shaded leaves and stems. Misty, mystical, exactly what I love about impressionistic paintings, especially on porcelain. The artist signed the painted piece, looks like Margine (?), I put my Ellen Original cartouche on the back of it.
Everything here is in excellent condition. The porcelain piece is fine, no issues. The extender chain dates to the 1960's and is in excellent vintage condition. The crystal beads are not vintage. The porcelain station IS vintage, no exact date is available as it was purchased 10 years ago at an antique show.
Necklace measures 21" total adjustable length. The porcelain centerpiece measures 3" long (includes bale) x 2~3/4" . the disc alone measures 2~3/4" round. This looks absolutely gorgeous on, you will love it!
