Incy Wincy - 1960s 18ct Gold Tubogas Collar with 9ct Gold Aquamarine Spider

About the Item

1960s 18ct gold articulated Tubogas collar with a Victorian 9ct gold and aquamarine spider. Story: My kids are both obsessed with the nursery rhyme, Incy Wincy Spider. When I read it to them we pretend that the eight legged fellow is crawling up their necks and they giggle with joy. When I saw this exceptional 1960s ‘gaspipe’ collar, I knew it was the perfect home for my little Victorian Aquamarine spider who was tucked away looking for a new home. ---------- Historical context: This beautiful and impressive heavy gauge 18ct gold “Gas Pipe” or “Tubo Gas” necklace was made in the 1960s in Italy, the masters of goldsmithing. It is a flexible tubular collar that sits neatly and comfortably on the neck. Victorians cherished gold spider brooches for their dual symbolism. Spiders, embodying mystery, storytelling and diligence, resonated with a society enamoured with the occult and hard work. ---------- Sizing: 36-46cm long Gemstones: 2.00ct aquamarine Please note, all sizes/carat weights are approximate as gemstones are assessed whilst set within jewellery. Weight: 64 grams
