Almonaster Pontalba Pendant

This charming pendant celebrates New Orleans' most iconic architectural detail—the ornate AP monogram that graces the legendary Pontalba buildings flanking Jackson Square. Handcrafted in gleaming high-polished pewter by master artisan Maurice Milleur, it captures the spirit of Baroness Michaela de Pontalba's visionary 1849-1850 development. That distinctive cast iron mark, originally designed by her son Gaston, became the blueprint for the city's signature aesthetic. Wear a piece of French Quarter history with this beautifully detailed tribute to the woman who literally shaped New Orleans' most enchanting neighborhood.
