André Rambour "Femme-Fleur" Enamel Gold Pendant Necklace
A regular exhibitor at the Paris Salons, Maison André Rambour was well-known for figural jewels of women and flowers, such as this "Femme-Fleur" pendant necklace in polychrome enamel and gold. Emerging from a purple enamel iris blossom among swirling leaves is the chased and engraved head of a young woman amid swirling hair and outstretched hand, suspended from a delicate fancy link chain and champlevé enamel leaf among sinuous vines.
