Poor Mouchette | Curated Antique Jewelry, Vintage Jewelry & Engagement Rings | Portland, Oregon | A very cool 1940s pendant, modeled in rosy 14k yellow gold, made to resemble a roaring tiger. This big cat is rendered in a prowling stance— her ears are flattened, her teeth are exposed, and her tail swishes. We love the expressive modeling, here, and the fine details of the tiger's stripes, which are raised slightly, standing above the fine, textured field of her body.
