Etruscan Revival Necklace

This necklace is made up of finely textured chain links, punctuated at intervals by ornate, granulated silver orbs decorated with tiny florets and beaded detailing. Sourced in Italy, the piece sits within the Etruscan revival tradition, the ornate nineteenth century style inspired by the intricate metalwork techniques of the ancient Etruscans. It fastens with a clasp built discreetly into one of the links, so the closure stays seamless, and the length works either worn long or doubled up. A genuinely rare find, with a level of detail that rewards a closer look.
