Hard to find miriam haskell orante chain necklace
You can stare for hours at this necklace trying to understand the complex and beautiful design pattern on this intricately woven necklace that could only come from Miriam Haskell. And it looks so simple... it's not.There are six individual round links that make up a "section" of the necklace. One side of the link contains a beautiful circular stamping and the other side has none. The links are styled and connected at an angle providing the illusion of alternating texture and smoothness. The construction is impeccable and the weight is sizable. Simply remarkable! The necklace measures 28" long by 1/2" wide. It is in excellent vintage condition with a warm gilt color finish and is guaranteed vintage Miriam Haskell. vintagejewelryonline.com |
