Coral Necklace | around 1910 | Secession | Natural Coral, Jewlery, Gold | Antiques | price: EUR 986Add to My CollectionAsk about this artifact |
The necklace in Art Nouveau style weights 13.4 grams. It is made of yellow gold of 585/1000 purity, i.e. 14 carats, and Mediterranean coral whose mining has gradually been discontinued for ecological reasons in recent decades. The centre is decorated with three small balls with wings and a small sweet-water pearl among them. Two large pear-shaped charms flow down from the body and their surface is cut into facets equally as is the case of two smaller balls at the end of the chains. The jewel on display is an Austrian-Hungarian work from the period around 1910.
