A vintage neck ring in silver, 18 karat gold and gilded silver. The rigid silver neck ring has a lightly textured surface and closes at the back with two interlocking circular ends, worked as part of the design rather than a hidden clasp.
From the front hangs a straight silver bar, holding a sculptural pendant shaped almost like an opening seed pod. The outer silver surface is softly hammered, while the folded sections reveal warm gilded silver inside. Fine raised silver lines run across the pendant, creating depth and movement. Small bead details sit along the lower edge like clustered berries, with two in 18 karat gold adding a subtle contrast.
A piece with real presence — artistic, unexpected and made to be seen.
