About the Item

A one-of-a-kind statement necklace centered around a rare antique silver buckle, intricately shaped in a stylized mango or paisley form—an iconic motif with deep symbolic roots in South Asian decorative arts, often representing fertility, abundance, and divine energy. Once part of a traditional garment clasp, this historic element has been thoughtfully reimagined as the focal point of a bold, contemporary heirloom. The buckle is framed by handcrafted gold-gilt silver beads, each rendered in an organic stamen-inspired form. These rare beads—painstakingly made by skilled artisans using lost-wax and hand-chasing techniques—lend an air of botanical poetry and ancient opulence. Their soft gilding offers a rich, understated contrast to the cool silver patina of the centerpiece. The entire composition is suspended on a triple strand of deeply saturated, hand-cut amethyst beads. These faceted gems lend movement, color, and a regal gravitas to the piece. The layered strands drape with fluidity across the collarbone and chest, making this necklace a striking conversation piece suitable for both formal occasions and distinctive editorial styling. This necklace blends past and present with bold artistic integrity. It will resonate with collectors who value wearable art, antique repurposing, and cultural storytelling. A true testament to slow luxury, sustainability, and refined personal style.
