Mid-Century silver pendant (1950–1970). Marked 800.
Vintage silver gilt pendant with a Reuge music box movement tucked inside. The front is set with a cream coloured panel moulded with a scene of figures, the sides are engraved with leafy fronds, and the back has a textured, brushed gilt finish with the winding key set into it. Reuge is the famous Swiss music box maker, founded in the 1800s and still known for some of the finest musical movements in the world. Having one of their movements hidden in a pendant you can wear around your neck is just brilliant, a little secret only you know about. It has a good substantial weight but still small enough to wear comfortably as a pendant.
Textured gold and abstract shapes, as a new generation of British designers came through.
