Mixed-Media Assemblage Pendant Necklace by Michal Golan
This is a rectangular mixed-media assemblage pendant hanging from a silver-toned cable chain, identified by the artist's signature 'MG' hallmark on the metal tag next to the lobster claw clasp. The pendant is an intricate composition featuring various elements: hand-painted enamel sections depicting a butterfly, a ladybug resting on a daisy, and floral motifs; rectangular tiles containing Asian script characters; and bezel-set cabochons including a large clear center stone, light blue faceted crystals, and darker blue accents. The metal framework appears to be silver-plated brass with a darkened, antiqued patina that emphasizes the textures of the floral-embossed top tube bead. The construction demonstrates a high level of artisan craftsmanship characteristic of Michal Golan's contemporary jewelry style, which blends Byzantine and global influences. The piece is in excellent vintage condition with no missing stones or visible chips to the enamel. The silver-tone finish on the chain shows light, age-appropriate oxidation that matches the pendant's intentional antiqued aesthetic.
