French work, 1870s Alsace-Lorraine" cross pendant in silver-plated and gilded metal, highlighted with blue, white and red enamel. Dimensions: 9.3x5.3cm. (Small cracks in the enamel). After the 1870 war, patriotic sentiment guided the production of many pieces of jewelry. As Henri Vever describes it, "A lot of jewelry was created featuring shrapnel, weapon fragments, military attributes or even... the entwined and often chained coats of arms of Alsace and Lorraine; the word "France" inscribed in a shield whose suppressed right-hand corner recalled the abducted provinces". Our cross is a clear example of this production. Bibliography: VEVER, Henri, La bijouterie française au XIXe siècle, Tome III, p. 338 and 346, for depictions and details of "Alsace-Lorraine" patriotic jewelry.
