Met Bestseller - Venetian Pendant with Mirror

ENLARGE

The writing instructor Giovanni Antonio Tagliente (Italian [Venetian], ca. 1465–1527) was a pioneer in the production of instructional booklets. His Opera nuova che insegna a le donne a cuscire (“A new work that teaches women to sew”), published in 1530 and now in the Museum's Drawings and Prints collection, contained designs for needlework and was the earliest Italian example of what would become a very popular genre in Venice. The design of the Museum's unique pendant is based on an intricate arabesque from Opera nuova.

24K gold plate, lightly antiqued. Open-weave cover slides sideways to reveal a mirror. Pendant length 2 in.; chain length 32 in.
