About the Item

This necklace is crafted in 18 karat gold and composed of closely linked, rounded elements that create a flexible woven chain. Each link is formed by small, polished gold beads, with additional bead-like “knobs” running along both outer edges, giving the chain a textured, dimensional appearance. The construction resembles a foxtail or beaded mesh link. At the front, a small round loop is discreetly integrated into the chain, enabling the addition of a pendant or charm. The necklace includes a short detachable extension piece, allowing the length to be adjusted. The clasps are rectangular and feature floral-like engraved patterns with delicate decorative detailing. The overall design is supple yet substantial, with a rhythmic, decorative surface created by the repeated gold beadwork. The quality of the work is just exquisite on this almost 150 year old necklace. Wearing this necklace has a regal feel, thanks to its substantial weight and the way it drapes smoothly and securely around the neck, giving a sense of quiet luxury and presence.
