Welcome to Sea Green Mermaid!

For sale is a 10k yellow gold Art Deco pendant featuring a "bathing beauty." Part of the Sea Green Mermaid Reimagined Vintage Collection, we transformed the original pin into a pendant so that it can be worn and enjoyed. The original pin was made by O.C. Tanner, a respected American jewelry designer for over 90 years out of Salt Lake City, Utah.

The pendant is an octagon. It features a black enamel background behind a female swimmer in white with a red bathing suit and swim cap. It is very reminiscent of the bathing beauty movies with Esther Williams in the 1940s. The top of the pendant has the number "5" in black enamel, framed by yellow enamel in the shape of elegant Deco era lotus flowers. 
The pendant is suspended from a jump ring bail to accommodate your chain. You will see the solder mark on back where we removed the pin. This sweet pendant is a perfect gift for the swimmer or diver in your life, or anyone with a soft spot for old Esther Williams movies!
** Chain not included

The item shows normal wear for a pre-owned piece (light scratches, dings, dents and scuff marks.)

Metal:  10k yellow gold
Stamp:  "10k" + "CTO" for OC Tanner
