He was a leading figure in the Modernisme movement, a Catalan variant of Art Nouveau, and was known for his use of medieval-inspired themes and natural plant and floral motifs. His ivory engravings of women with long hair are highly sought after by collectors. This pendant is oval design, set with a carved and painted ivory medallion depicting a young lady on a roses background, highlighted with circular-cut and rose diamonds, the reverse set with tinted horn.
