Provenance:
Maison Savard's FIX jewelry became known for its exceptionally high-quality gold-filled construction, using a substantial layer of 18 karat gold bonded to a base metal. This gave FIX pieces the rich color and durability of fine gold jewelry while making them more accessible than solid gold.
This signed Art Nouveau medal reflects that tradition, with its sculptural cherub design and original engraved monogram preserved on the reverse.
