Essex Crystal of a Terrier

$2,000.00

Beautifully hand carved and painted reverse intaglio portrait of a beloved companion from the Victorian era set in 14 karat yellow gold. Notice the pale pink silk collar. This piece is approximately 1.5 inches in diameter.

From Antique Animal Jewelry:

“Essex crystal pieces are made from a piece of rock crystal, polished by hand repeatedly to create a domed cabochon with a flat base or back. A design is drawn on the flat side and is delicately hand-carved into the crystal, and then painted in reverse by a masterful maker. This is quite unlike normal intaglio, which is painted on the front, as everything has to be done in reverse and from the back. Painting directly into the carved inside of the dome gives the paintings an incredible three-dimensional or ‘‘trompe l’oeil’ effect. Finally, the piece would be sealed with a backing, with early examples being backed onto gold foil, and later examples in mother of pearl and gold.”
