Medieval Floral Azure Pendant

Subtotal: £86.70

Medieval Floral Azure Pendant: This jewellery is inspired from a beechwood box made in 1580 in Venice. This box may have been used for combs, brushes and other small personal accessories. Contemporary illustrations show such boxes hung on the wall in a bed chamber beside a dressing mirror with similar decoration. This type of decoration appears to have been a Venetian speciality, found from about 1570 on musical instruments, book-bindings, caskets and frames. The lustrous colours painted on bone (or sometimes mother-of-pearl) emulated the decorated surfaces of imported products which were probably described at the time as alla zemina (in the Persian manner), or petteniera turchesca (in the Turkish manner).

Jewellery Care

We wish for you to enjoy your jewellery for as long as possible, and therefore recommend you read the following care instructions.

Please do not expose the jewellery to harsh chemicals, extreme temperatures or sunlight for a prolonged period.

Please make sure to apply cosmetics, perfume and hairspray prior to putting on the jewellery to avoid possible blemishing and discolouration.

Do remove the jewellery when performing any activity which may cause damage to the product, e.g. exercising, showering or performing household tasks.

Store each piece of jewellery separately as constant brushing together can damage the finish.

Acid in your skin and fragrances can attack the plated finish and so from time to time you should gently wash the items in your hands with warm soapy water.

Do not use brushes or cloths. Rinse in warm water and dry carefully.

Avoid using Ultrasonic jewellery cleaner which can dislodge the stones.
