19th Century Solid Silver Oval Miniature Portrait Painting Pendant or Brooch

This is a very pretty and interesting painted miniature brooch or pendant in a solid silver. The mount is marked. 800 for silver and this was typically used in Continental Europe in the 19th century. The beautiful painting is in neoclassical style and of a woman. It is signed but it’s difficult to make out as it’s partly obscured my the mount, I think it’s either Eiizzoni or Fiizzoni so it would appear to be Italian but I haven’t been able to find the name. The rear of the pendanr has not only a pin but also a loop to allow it to be used as a pendant making it a very versatile item of jewllery. It measures 28mm by 36mm, approx. It weighs 7.6 grams, approx. This fine brooch/pendant of a beautiful woman in a silver oval mount would make a great addition to any collection or could be used everyday. It would also make a wonderful unique gift.
