Pampilles
pamp·illes | ˈpäm-pē
noun
A cascade of pendant stones, popular in Georgian jewelry and meant to look like rain drops
Pampilles is a French term for tassels, in the context of jewelry, furniture, and fashion. It is commonly used to describe the small stones that hang from a pendant that were popularized during the Georgian period. The resulting cascade of stones is meant to look like raindrops and was popular throughout Europe at the time. Pampilles can also be used as a verb related to things that dangle or hang low, though, it can also be related to the term pendant in that context depending on the tense of the verb. In some cases, Pampilles is used as a synonym for pendant, but typically only in situations where the pendant has tassel-like extensions.
