    This is a big, beautiful pendant by maker Adolf Mayer from Frankfurt am Main, made probably in the 1920s. It has a late Secessionist Jugendstil floral motif. The beautiful natural red coral really comes alive, and the silver leaves project depth and movement. The bale is also decorated. It is marked on the back with 800 AM.

      Hi kyra, I couldn't decide whether it was a floral or marine motif, but I think you're right, it's seaweed!! thanks ;-)
      and thanks to Jensen & Jean for loving, too.
