SALE! Miniature Portrait - Large Round - Madame de Pompadour

Miniature Portraits have been a common piece of sentimental jewelry for centuries. You see them during the Tudor Era through the Victorian period.  Like our modern-day lockets, they were a way to keep a portrait of a loved-one or someone you admire close. 

These historical miniatures feature portraits of well-know figures in history.  They measure 35mm and are available in Silver plate, Gold plate, or Antique Gold plate.  They are finished with either a simple decorative edge or a more elaborate crystal halo. 

This miniature features the famous and alluring Madame de Pompadour, favorite of Louis XV.  This portrait dates to 1758.
