BOUCHERON CORAL AND ONYX 'SERPENT BOHÈME' PENDANT/BROOCH, CIRCA 1970

Property from a Private Victorian Collector

Centring an oval cabochon coral framed by a beaded surround further decorated by circular cabochon onyx and pear-shaped coral between openwork textured coiled serpentine motifs, length 78mm, width 72mm, numbered 2xxx6, signed Boucheron Paris.

NOTES: In 1888, Frederic Boucheron gifted his wife a serpent necklace, a symbol of enduring protection. This romantic gesture birthed the iconic serpent motif that has become the hallmark of the House. The Serpent Bohème collection, unveiled in 1968, transcends time with its poetic elegance, a graceful dance through the tapestry of ages.
