Vintage Guadeloupe Islands Sterling Silver Pendant with Necklace
ayquebella.com |
Remarkable and striking pendant from “the pearl of the French Caribbean” in the Lesser Antilles, the country of Guadeloupe. This beautiful, French West Indian woman with a friendly face is skillfully balancing a basket of pineapple -- the symbol of hospitality -- on her head. She has a certain je ne sais quoi about her as she wears a stylish head kerchief or scarf, hoop earrings, necklace and a bracelet on her arm. The archipelago of Guadeloupe contains over a dozen islands, with five jewel islands, and is nicknamed, “The Land of Many Influences,” because of its rich, ethnic diversity and its multi-faceted identity.
This delightful pendant boldly hangs on a 18-inch long rope chain necklace and is coated with a very light, natural, undisturbed patina. She will look absolutely stunning on any outfit you wear!
