Right... the lace brings it down a couple of decades, IMO (like this one) . The pictures are not clear enough to see much detail, but as it is, the fan shaped pendant seems to be made in one piece w/o assembly, something I would associate with new examples of the style.

I hesitated allot before posting this because I am no expert and don't want to detract from the striking impression of the piece... If anything, I would have brought the same question to a professional for advice, if a talk with the seller and better view of the pendant didn't sort things as usual.

Anyway, what am I saying? Perhaps the simple fact that this came as an Ebay listing instead of being paired with in-kind in a more selective auction brought all the questions.
