How were these medallions originally worn?

These pieces were typically suspended from thin gold chains or ribbons around the neck. Religious versions often served as personal tokens of faith and protection. Other variations, such as zodiac charms and floral designs, functioned purely as decorative jewellery or personal markers of identity.

How can I tell the period of a medallion?

Dating relies heavily on stylistic markers, such as the flowing organic lines typical of Art Nouveau or the cleaner geometric aesthetics of Mid-Century design. Maker signatures and French hallmarks stamped into the gold also provide reliable chronological markers. Examining the specific manufacturing techniques and gemstone cuts helps narrow down the decade of production.

Are all these pieces French in origin?

The vast majority of the medallions listed here originate from French workshops and prominent medallists. They reflect the rich tradition of French devotional and decorative jewellery production. These pieces frequently carry domestic assay marks indicating the standard of the gold used.
