Austro Hungarian jewellery used a number of influences from within the empire such as Austria, Hungary and the Czech Republic but also those that it bordered such as Italy, Germany and Poland to creat a unique and recognisable style of it's own. Most of the pieces we see such as this pendant date from 1870-1900.
