This ornate late 19th century enamel and pearl pendant by London jeweller Child & Child is a highlight of George Kidner’s March 2 sale in Lymington, Hampshire.
Displayed in a contemporary fitted Child & Child leather case, the pendant features a central white enamel cusped section with a large natural saltwater pearl to the centre, and is flanked by red guilloché enamel peacocks with bright green tails.
Active from 1891-1915, Child & Child was renowned for its enamel work and produced jewellery in the Neo-Renaissance, Art Nouveau and Edwardian styles.
