Design Details & Artistry

- Ornate Repoussé Framing: Flanking the central monogram are symmetrical, openwork side panels detailed with magnificent repoussé and chased scrollwork. The stylized foliage motifs and delicate beaded borders draw clear inspiration from classic neo-Renaissance revival aesthetics.
- Functional Open Loops:The outermost edges retain their original integrated wide loops. These openings allow the slide to glide smoothly along parallel chains, split leather cords, or a velvet ribbon
