AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This stunning 925 sterling silver necklace embodies a charm inspired by ethnic and tribal aesthetics, perfect for those who love jewelry rich in history, personality, and handcrafted details. The structured design develops around a strong color contrast between the warm-bronzed sheen of the silver and the deep red of the gems.
The Central Pendant is the true focal point of the necklace; it is a large rectangular element in oxidized silver. The surface is entirely filigreed with geometric and floral motifs in relief, with an antique feel. From the base of the rectangle hang several chain-fringes, each finished with a small silver sphere, which lend movement and dynamism to the piece.
The front part of the necklace is composed of a rhythmic alternation of:
Large smooth ovals (barrel/cabochon cut) in an intense ruby red or burgundy color, catching the light with elegance.
Silver spacer elements, finely decorated with small spheres and granulations that echo traditional artisanal craftsmanship.
At the top, the chain that rests on the neck transitions into a thinner, more linear silver chain with classic links, ensuring comfort and a perfect fit, culminating in cone-shaped worked terminals.
