Story
Masterful and replete with precise details, this pendant represents the Zodiac sign of Pisces and was created by the noted French jeweler, Charles Perroud.
Mr. Perroud worked in France from the years of 1913 to 1949. These Zodiac medallions were created in several sizes, from tiny to this example, one the largest, at over 3/4 of an inch in diameter (or 20 mm) and 1 3/16 inches long (30 mm).
Two realistic raised fish show off their frills, tail, and arching bodies that are connected by a raised thin "S" curve. The glyph for the sign and the dates of 9-11 and 20.111 (for February 9th through March 20th) are also evident.
All in 18k gold, the circular plaque is surrounded by a highly polished and angled border that reflects the light beautifully.
