This magnificent circular medallion silhouette is meticulously crafted with a rich Byzantine style layout, showcasing a multi-tiered circular configuration that boasts an intricate radial symmetry adorned with vibrant alternating gem tones and structured textured channels.
The focal centerpiece features a dramatic open-back octagonal faceted glass gemstone in a deep royal cobalt sapphire blue hue, masterfully framed by a perimeter of alternating fuchsia ruby red cabochons and luminous faux seed pearls nested inside an opulent green basse-taille style cross-hatched enamel geometric grid.
