FAQs

Figurative gold charms and pictorial pendants became popular in mid-20th-century France, often featuring whimsical, narrative designs such as opening windows, houses, and secret compartments crafted by skilled jewellers.

These pieces are typically forged from 18-carat yellow gold, often incorporating precious and semi-precious gemstones such as rubies, sapphires, and emeralds, alongside intricate hand-engraved texturing.

Authentic French pieces usually bear traditional French hallmarks, such as the eagles head denoting 18K gold standard, alongside makers marks stamped onto the jump ring or exterior casing.

An antique gold pendant can be suspended from a modern trace or curb chain of varying length to create a curated, layered necklace look that balances historical charm with contemporary minimalism.

Clean the piece gently using warm soapy water and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding harsh chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners, particularly if the gemstones are foil-backed or set with delicate claws.
