I take regularly scheduled inventory trips to Europe and around the USA to find unique antique items to bring you (see my instagram to follow along! : ). Pieces offered in the shop were all hand picked one at a time to assemble a collection that I hope you will enjoy! Thanks for stopping by!

ABOUT:
Personal collection release - in time for the holidays. I love these French month medals - the way each has the month name in French and each is designed with a different flower motif.

These are fun to wear throughout the year with the beautiful floral design, or especially if the month is relevant as a birthday, anniversary, etc. As such they make very unique gifts. They are actually somewhat hard to come by.

This one is December - "Decembre" in French. It has an applied and engraved mistletoe motif. It is crafted in beautiful tricolor gold, reading a rich, buttery yellow gold, with rose gold accents in the engraved recesses and green gold on the leaves. It is set with an orangish red paste stone that I assume is meant to look like a garnet.
French hallmark on the loop for 18k gold.

I loved wearing this piece through the holidays last year. So even if the month of December is not relevant for a birthday or anniversary of yourself or a loved one, this one makes a great holiday gift as well!

Any props not included. Please note the measurements as I have small hands and it can be difficult to decipher scale from photos..

MEASUREMENTS:
19mm in diameter (not including the attached loop or jump ring.
Weight: 1.5g. Thin gold work with dainty hand feel.

IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
A small chip to the edge of the stone seen mostly under magnification as it still fills the bezel well. It is a small stone so it is not glaring but seen more under magnification or if you are studying it for flaws which can be done also in the pics.

Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned and in estate condition. They will have patina, surface wear, a few small nicks. These pieces may also have evidence of a sizing, some build up around the stones and / or inclusions seen under magnification, typical for antique pieces. I have mentioned any noticeable issues above and they are all still wearable and eager to be loved and accepted for many years to come, (the preservation of antique jewelry, even those with signs of their age and history, is important to me. : )
But - Please note due to age, this piece is not in mint condition. Pictures also serve as part of the description and condition report so please utilize the zoom feature which will magnify any wear significantly more than what is visible to the eye while wearing : )
