About the Item

This Retro necklace combines a traditional snake chain with an unusual ornamental zigzag front. Five arched V shapes are separated by curved links with two rubies on each. The necklace is 16 inches long. There is a curved wire in the very middle from which one can hang a pendant, although it is certainly not necessary. The snake part of the chain measures 1/4 inches wide. It has a foldover box clasp. The necklace was made in the 1940's of 14 karat gold.
