A domed oval of cream porcelain printed with a full cottage garden bouquet — blowsy pink rose, mauve chrysanthemum, blue daisies, and yellow wildflowers against a soft ivory ground — set in a scalloped gold-tone frame and suspended from a delicate double-strand chain. Transfer-printed porcelain pendants like this were a quiet fixture of 1970s and 80s jewelry, carrying the same botanical sensibility as Victorian china patterns into everyday wearable form. The domed surface catches light softly, giving the flowers a gentle three-dimensional quality.
