Description

DATE: Art Nouveau, c.1910

A striking French antique pendant, depicting a roaring lion with fierce ruby set eyes and a transitional cut diamond between its teeth. It's crafted in 14k yellow gold with a textured mane and face with eight teeth on display. The reverse shows the lions tail, so I'm guessing this was originally a brooch. Comes complete with a gold chain and it dates from the Art Nouveau period, c.1910.
