PENDANT "MAHA WITH A ROSE"

Quite a miniature pendant with the Spanish girl on malachite. An 

openwork emerald cape is just the same and there is a natural pattern 

of inclusions of malachite.
Made entirely by hand in the technique of multilayer lacquer oil 

painting, when the layers of oil painting
alternate with layers of varnish. Sometimes their number reaches ten 

or more.
This is a rather long and laborious process that requires precision 

and subtlety of the drawing.

Materials: oil, lacquer, malachite , ruby in zoisite, silver fittings
Size: Pendant: 2.8*4.5cm
Suspension: 50 cm
