This wonderful vintage silver moth pendant is evocative of the Art Nouveau style and it has a natural organic Arts & Crafts vibe to it too.
A simple but striking stylized design it is handwrought in sterling silver with ribbed wings, antennae with little bead ends and a lovely forest green banded malachite cabochon forming the body.
The pendant has a diamond shaped integral bale at the back so it tilts forward slightly when worn, a nice design touch and means you can wear it with thick chains, cords or wear it as a choker if you wanted to vary the look.
A sturdy gauge round link belcher/rolo silver chain completes this unique pendant necklace that is bound to invite curiosity and compliments!
