louisa

large vintage etruscan revival goldette pendant dating to the 1960s, transformed into a bold focal element. the design flows through four sculptural tiers: three ornate crescent-moon shapes stacked in a graceful descent, each showcasing intricate etruscan-inspired texture and metalwork. the final tier culminates in a substantial, richly detailed fob embellished with warm faux cornelian cabochon glass stones, their glowing orange-red tones adding depth, contrast, and a refined touch of mid-century drama.

the chain is handmade and rhythmic, built from faceted crystal-cut carnelian beads that shimmer with fiery clarity, paired with 24-carat gold-plated hammered brass beads that add textured brilliance and a touch of artisan warmth. its weight and structure echo the pendant’s sculptural mid-century geometry.

the piece is finished with a substantial 12-carat plated pewter toggle clasp, lead and cadmium free, giving the necklace a grounded, old-world feel. the overall effect is a striking statement piece with opulent mid-century character, dramatic textures, and a glowing carnelian palette that radiates vintage allure.
