The Metropolitan Museum of Art Necklaces*Bohemian Dragon Magnifier Pendant Necklace

Art Jewelry Inspired By A Met Treasure.

A Celebration Of Whimsy And Artistry, This Handcrafted Magnifier Pendant Nods To The Exquisite Foliate Detailing On An Imaginative Bohemian Ewer (A Vase-Shaped Pitcher) (Ca. 1680) In The Met Collection. A Tangle Of Fantastical Tails And Scales Supports A Smoky Rock-Crystal Basin Fiercely Protected By A Dragon, Whose Serpentine Form Creates A Handle. The Museum’S Remarkable Renaissance-Style Vessel Is Attributed To The Workshop Of The 17Th-Century Artisan Ferdinand Eusebio Miseroni (Italian, Active Prague, Working 1656–84); However, Certain Elements Indicate That It Was Reworked In The Early 19Th Century.
