Vintage pendant signed Henry Perichon - Gold-plated metal and glass paste, 1960s

Vintage pendant signed Henry Perichon , a leading figure in French artistic jewelry of the 1950s and 60s, here in a composition typical of his modernist style. The pendant combines a gold-tone metal structure with organic and geometric lines, enriched with a turquoise glass cabochon, cut in a diamond shape and set in the center of the architectural element.

Henry Perichon, the son of a jeweler, worked from 1940 until his death in 1971. He is known for his neo-medieval, neo-antique, and Byzantine jewelry, characterized by a primitive yet refined charm, where hammered surfaces, architectural volumes, and simple but noble materials coexist. He primarily used gilded metal and talosel (cellulose acetate), like Line Vautrin , another leading figure of the era.

The signature is incised " HENRY" on the reverse of the pendant.
