Pierrot and Pierrette - Sterling Silver Antique Button Necklace

This antique button necklace is made with an exquisite antique button featuring the French pantomime couple, Pierrot and Pierrette. Pierrot's origins reach back to the late seventeenth-century when an Italian troupe performed in Paris and even further to the commedia dell-arte. Pierrot declares his love in the light of a silvery crescent moon - a treasure.
