Robert Lee Morris for Artwear Gold Plated Sterling Silver Sculptural Necklace

About the Item

This period vintage gold plated link necklace was designed and executed in the late 70's by Robert Lee Morris when he had his Art Wear gallery in NYC/ Soho. It is a fine example of his organic and sensual sculptural forms. It is a necklace today that remains timeless and modernist as he bridged the worlds of fashion and art as one. It is wearable jewelry that evokes a sensuality. The links that are reinterpreted teardrop forms with a modernist approach in jewelry design are modernity brought to a high level. Robert Lee Morris during his high time of his career won many awards : one a Coty and worked for the top fashion designers of the 20th Century He designed for Donna Karan which encompassed at least 39 collections. It has great weight to it and a stellar presence. Never outdated and au courant! This was done in 1977. This is a fabulous necklace that will be forever timeless, special and sculptural.
