Vintage green guilloché enamel ball pendant watch
$0.00
Here is an absolutely stunning vintage green guilloché enamel ball pendant watch that not only looks incredible but is also very practical and useful.
Made in the 1930’s in sterling silver, the enameling technique applied is called guilloché enamel. This is a precise technique where a fine, intricate pattern is engraved and then once enameled, is polished to a high lustre revealing the wonderful pattern as can be seen here.
Able to be easily worn as a pendant around the neck, the vibrant green enamel really stands out so beautifully and the dial is also so easy to read.
Measuring 18.2mm across by 23.4mm to the top of the bail, the manual wind movement has been fully serviced, runs perfect and comes with our twelve month warranty.
Attached to a lovely long silver chain, this is a piece of jewellery just as much as a timepiece and will always be such a wonderful conversation starter.

A brief history on guilloché enamel:
Going back to the 18th Century, guilloché is a decorative technique in which a very precise and repetitive pattern is engraved into an underlying material such as gold or silver and then enamel applied over the top. After the firing process is completed, it is polished back to a high lustre revealing the engraved pattern below the surface. Often seen in high quality French and Swiss pieces over the century, this is an enameling technique that has always remained so popular and sought after.
