Anyone know what era?

 

Hello & welcome. Would you please go to edit and click on FULL IMAGE. It will be of benefit to all, especially you. Thank you.

 

Here you go, Keith:



While I don't think that it is, it reminds me quite a bit of some of the Krementz rose jewelry from the 1960's.

 

Need a more in focus picture and a close up of any marks.

 

Well, now I know a little about Krementz. Yeah, it does have th look.
Is that a little stone cradled in the rose?

 

Here is a better shot. I was thinking it was nouveau art from 1800's.

It does have a 10k marking.

 

I think this is more 1970s Art Nouveau Revival than Art Nouveau. Those squiggly lines at the bottom are pretty well diagnostic.

 

JMHO, but I don't see Art Nouveau or even Art Nouveau revival in this piece. It looks 1960s to 70s possibly gold filled to me and I would check for a Krementz mark, it has their look. Their marks can be small and some times well hidden.

Sorry if I sound harsh, but flowers and/or woman do not make a piece Art Nouveau any more than triangles make Art Deco. Both have a style that is much more than just those simple elements. If I had a nickel for every piece of Nouveau or Deco pieces misidentified on eBay, I would be rich!

 

Krementz made gold pieces by the time this came along. It's marked 10k, so it could be both. That wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.

 

I have no help on age. Just want to comment that the rose with stem looks upside down. The whole design has a pendulum look.

"England swings like a pendulum do
Bobbies on bicycles, two by two
Westminster Abbey, the tower of Big Ben,
The rosy red cheeks of the little children."



Excuse me while I indulge in a little recollection of 1960s music.
