About the Item

Indulge in a stunning antique William Spratling (American-born, 1900-1967) Taxco Silver and Turquoise Chip Inlay Mirroring Hand Necklace, 1965-1967. Designed as two opposed hands of silver and inlayed green hardstone centering on a yin/yang symbol and suspended from a silver link chain. The necklace is marked with the WS script hallmark and Eagle 63 which indicates the necklace was made by Spratling from 1965-1967. The hand necklace was also made in later years on the Spratling ranch by his descendents. This piece is an original Spratling piece, not one made by his descendents, as evidenced by the marks. The William Spratling Sterling Silver and natural malachite pendant in the form of mirroring hands is a masterpiece. The pendant is a monumental 5 1/8 inches wide. The silver and inlay work is absolutely exquisite. The silver feels extraordinary to the touch. The piece is spectacular with stunning design and beautiful hardstone inlay. The necklace with its strong clean lines and wonderful details is a masterpiece of Mexican Silversmith artistry. The necklace chain length is 17 1/2 inches. The pendant length is 3 inches and width is 5 1/8 inches. Weight 54.1 dwt.
