About the Item

A Vintage Butler & Wilson Snake Collar from the 1980s. A dramatic riviere of fancy cut stones creates our wonderful serpent collar that winds fully around the neck to wonderful effect. Claw set marquise and oval crystals edged with chatons creating a sumptuous and glitzy vibe. A concealed clasp finishes to perfection. One of Butler & Wilson's most iconic styles this is a particularly fine example. Amp up your neckline and draw the attention this iconic find deserves.

Their pieces from the 20th century without doubt exude the very best of their work and continue to wow both the collector and style hunter.
