Rare German Arts and Crafts Silver and Coral Pendant
A wonderful Arts and Crafts German 900 silver and coral pendant on a chain, with the unusual ocean motif of raised silver sea creatures framing a piece of natural branch coral. The design includes a fish, a lobster, a starfish, and what appears to be a sea urchin. It looks as if the pendant was designed especially for the rich colored piece of coral, as the figures fit perfectly into its shape. The pendant is attached by a small chain to the figure of an angel fish, which in turn is attached to the main original handmade chain. The chain has a hook and eye closing.

The pendant is marked 900, and has incised marks of a moon and crown indicating Germany as the country of origin. The pendant has a pin with the original C clasp. An exceptional piece, and really a work of art.

Condition: Fine.

Size: Pendant- 2 X 1 ¼ inches. Chain- 20 inches long.
