This is a glowing antique French handmade enamel pendant of a pink magnolia on a vivid blue background made by master enamellist G. Candelier in Limoges, France. The extraordinary three-dimensional image gives the impression of stained glass. Gilt copper/pinchbeck setting with a lovely patina. Exceptional and one of a kind.
It is signed on the back. 
Sold with a quality 18kt rose gold-plated chain.
