About the Item

Very rare unusual multi strand necklace recalling certain designs of the dresses from the YSL 1967 haute couture African collection. Crafted with wood, various stones (red jasper and white marble-like), glass, molten glass and rhinestones of different shapes and sizes, this incredible piece is a remarkable example of Loulou de la Falaise’s dramatic creativity, combining different materials with a touch of antique, ethnic, bobo and Parisian chic. Dimensions : Necklace measures approx. 27 cm (10.6 inches) long at longest point and approx. 10.1 cm (4 inches) wide (where the seven vertical strands start). The length of the necklace is adjustable and features the “Yves Saint Laurent / Made in France” tag (see picture 7).
