is this a pin? or was it worn on a chain?
It is worn on a chain. It also opens up. I'll upload another view tonight. There are rose petals inside.
Is that a maker's mark with CG?
Carlo Giuliano or .......not?
I'l hope for you Jojomang that it's indeed a Giuliano but in any case it is a very beautyful juwel. I;l love it!
Thanks for your interest ladies... close, but this as definitely a Castellani pendant. He was an Italian Archeological revivalist jeweler from the 1800's. He was inspired by intricate gold work of the ancient Etruscan jewelry makers. I just googled Giulianno and discovered that he worked for Castellani and then went on to create his own business. Interesting! Thanks again for your comments!
