Art Deco 9ct Gold, Butterfly Wing & Sulphide Pendant of a Dancing Nymph with Trumpet

584M
858 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A pretty Art Deco 9ct gold pendant, depicting a dancing nymph with a trumpet in sulphide, mounted on real butterfly wing, which has retained all its original colour. Sulphide is a compound of sulphur with some other chemical elements and was used from Georgian times onwards in jewellery. So often the butterfly wing becomes discoloured with damp over the years. This pendant is in good condition and was made in the 1920s.
