Antique Vintage Art Deco THOMAS L MOTT Sterling Silver Iridescent Butterfly Wing Pendant Necklace Hand Painted. Small Miniature Size. Present Gift.
Circa 1920’s
The Necklace Will Come in a Gift Box, Hand Tied with Ribbon and Would Make a GORGEOUS GIFT!
A pretty antique Art Deco Thomas L Mott, iridescent blue morpho butterfly wing Kingfisher pendant necklace, on the original silver chain. The pendant has a lovely hand-painted kingfisher with foliage on a black background, reverse painted onto the glass, with a wonderful pie crust edge. I love this butterfly wing jewellery – it looks so beautiful and iridescent whenever it catches the light.
Stamped simply ‘Silver’ on the reverse, it isn’t signed, but this is not at all unusual. I have had many Thomas Mott pieces and many are not signed. The chain is stamped on the clasp for silver.
Butterfly wing jewellery was produced by both Mott and Shipton’s and was first patented in 1923. It was then exhibited at the British Empire Exhibition the following year, in 1924, and became incredibly popular as a result.
The pendant is a lovely miniature size, measuring: 15.75mm diamteter (not including the bale).
The chain measures just shy of: 18” or 45.5cm
in Very Good Original Antique Condition
