1820s French Charles X Period Openwork Three-Dimensional Link Long Necklace

This long necklace, dating back to the 1820s during the Charles X period in France, is made from a pomponne alloy and measures 114 cm in length. The necklace features an exquisitely detailed and intricate design. Each link is symmetrically formed by joining two identical thin plates. The fine granulation on both sides of these plates creates a matte gold effect, enhancing the links' sophistication. The dimensional, openwork structure lends the overall design a luxurious and romantic aesthetic without appearing heavy. About Pomponne Alloy: Pomponne is a unique metal alloy, primarily copper-based, mixed with specific proportions of other metals (often including a small amount of gold) to achieve a visual resemblance to high-purity gold or silver. It has been used for crafting delicate pieces since the 18th century. The material gained its name when artisans working at the Hôtel de Pomponne in Paris received royal authorization in 1785, and it subsequently became the common term for such gold-like pieces. The actual color and texture of the item are closer to the worn-on photos. The piece is in good antique condition, with normal signs of oxidation and wear, and more noticeable oxidation in some areas. This is a century-old antique piece, not a new item.
