About the Item
A striking, handmade choker necklace evoking the opulence of Victorian and Mughal (Mogul) aesthetics, this piece is richly embellished and dramatically styled. The front showcases a lavish arrangement of bezel-set Persian turquoise cabochons, each with the signature robin's egg blue tone, interspersed with shimmering faceted cubic zirconia that mimic the brilliance of antique diamonds.
The entire composition is heavily gold-plated over mixed metal or lower-grade silver, a practice commonly seen in mid-20th century Indian craftsmanship. The necklace’s structured front—measuring approximately 7 inches in length—is designed to sit gracefully at the collarbone, culminating in a graceful drop at the center with a maximum width of 2 inches.
The back is finished with a traditional "J"-hook and adjustable "O"-ring chain closure, offering a wearable length of approximately 15 ¾ inches. This design element not only reflects period authenticity but also ensures secure and comfortable wear.
Though unsigned, the piece was likely produced in India during the mid to late 20th century, drawing on both Victorian romanticism and the grandeur of Mughal jewelry traditions. The craftsmanship, materials, and aesthetic point to skilled regional artisanship, blending regal drama with handmade elegance.
