Antique Silver Hmong Collar or Neck Ring

About the Item

This is an unusual and massive silver neck ring from a tribal group from the mountain region of the golden triangle of Laos, Thailand and Burma. The ring is intended as a protective amulet preventing the spirit of the wearer from leaving her body. The neck ring is suspended from a custom iron frame allowing the neck ring to be the perfect decorative element in either a traditional or a minimalist mid-century design. It would also add focus to a Spanish or monastic aesthetic. (Additional information included in the attached paperwork from an early 21st century sale)

  • Antique Wicker Chaise Longue or Daaybed
    Located in Pasadena, CA
    It is quite unusual to find an early 20th century wicker chaise longue in the nearly pristine as this one was found--fresh from a Beverly Hills Estate. This chaise embodies the current Coastal Design aesthetic. There is some minor rubbing to the wicker and a few paint losses plus a couple of paint drips, but overall, the chaise is in wonderful sturdy condition and ready for another 100 years of use. We have elected to leave it in a lightly patinated state, rather than repaint it, as this maintains the character of the chaise. The red ticking...
