French Art Nouveau 18K Gold & Diamond van der Straeten LA GAIETE Pendant A lovely French 18K gold, platinum and diamond Art Nouveau pendant featuring a young woman in flowing garments. The design “La Gaieté” (“the merry one”) was created by the famed Belgian sculptor George van der Straeten in 1900. Many such designs were adapted for jewelry, but van der Straeten’s images are very uncommon. The pendant is worked in an asymmetrical form bordered with rose cut diamonds set in platinum. The lady also wears a choker of rose cut diamonds. The piece originally had a pinstem and clasp that was removed at some point, but the two pendant loops appear to be original and are partially hallmarked with French 18K marks. The medallion is signed “G. van der Straeten” on the front.
