#20982 Hummingbird Pin

This 18K yellow gold vintage Art Nouveau Cloissone “red-throated hummer” Hummingbird Pin/Pendant (Circa 1940-1950) is a luxurious work of art.

Cloisonné jewelry had a royal history and a legacy of beauty. Cloisonné is an ancient art form that involves creating intricate designs by applying enamel to metal. The process is incredibly labor-intensive and requires great skill and patience.  Dating back to the 13th century, the cloisonné process was first used in ancient China to create vases and other art for the Emperor. 

The vintage aspect of this pin/pendant adds a unique charm that is hard to replicate.  The hummingbird is wondrously detailed. The enamel is applied in sections to create the intricate design of the bird’s feathers, wings, and tail.  Using different colors of enamel adds depth and dimension, making it truly captivating.

The warm, yellow gold provides the perfect backdrop for the hummingbird and creates a stunning visual contrast.

Don’t miss the opportunity to own a piece of history.
