This is a rather unusual pendant that depicts an Austrian soldier in uniform, wearing his kepi. Its frame is quite attractive, consisting of two thin gold-toned bands woven together to form the frame. It has a small ring at the top through which a chain could be inserted in order to wear the pendant.
Its reverse is quite unusual. Instead of the normal, gilt-toned backing, the soldier’s wife or sweetheart has inserted her photograph. I do not know if he or she wore it, or whether it was given to a mother to keep her two children near her heart. Many of these photographic pins and pendants are just so touching! Some days they make my heart hurt.

Here is another variation of classic patriotic photograph jewelry. These were commonly set up as pins, while this example is set up as a pendant. What really makes it different are the photographs on BOTH sides of the pendant. One side shows a soldier, and the other side shows his two young sons. It is gold-toned, with a braided decorative frame encircling the basic structure. This is an unusual piece of patriotic jewelry. I have never seen another quite like it.
