The Piece London
Vintage 'Virgo" Medal by Paul Vincze
Dating to 1962 and celebrating the Virgo in your life, this heavy 18ct medal was made by famous medallist Paul Vincze.
Hungarian born, Paul Vincze (1907-1994) designed the coinage for many African countries, and sculpted commemorative medals for key historic events (Queen Elizabeth II's coronation, John F Kennedy's memorial).
Known for his classical style work, he created a series of zodiac pendants in 1962 - of which this is one - and they are quite collectible pieces.
This pendant is offered with its original chain, a lovely 24" curb in 18ct weighing 9.65g - making it well suited to support the solid 17.14g medal! If you would like to purchase the pendant without the chain please use code "nochain" to apply an £800 discount to your order.
Offered in excellent vintage condition.
