Vintage 1928 Jewelry Gold Tone Cross Pendant Necklace Repoussé Flower

Description
A 1990s cross by the 1928 Jewelry Company, made in the Victorian revival style the brand is known for. A raised blossom sits at the center like a wild rose, and leaves and tulip shapes are worked in relief along each arm. Small gold-tone beads tip every point, and the back is covered in swirling scrollwork around the signed plaque. It hangs from a 20" scroll-link chain that lies flat and catches light at every link.
