Description from the seller
I propose for sale a refined and eclectic unisex necklace — perfect and full of character for both men and women — that combines the deep elegance of top-quality lapis lazuli with the brilliance of high-grade Portuguese gold.
Features and Strengths:
Superior Quality Lapis Lazuli: The lapis lazuli spheres stand out for a deep midnight/royal blue color, exceptionally uniform along the entire length of the necklace, an irrefutable indicator of the very high quality of the selected gems.
21 Carat Gold and Craftsmanship: Every four lapis lazuli spheres, the necklace is enriched with spheres in 21-carat yellow gold (875/1000) Portuguese, finely decorated with geometric motifs. The gold spheres were all handmade by Portuguese goldsmiths: for this reason each sphere shows imperceptible and unique differences, an authentic signature of the jewelry's craftsmanship.
High-Security Closure: The clasp perfectly echoes the geometric motif engraved on the gold spheres. It features a solid central snap mechanism and is complemented by an additional safety chain in gold, ensuring maximum hold and peace of mind when worn.
Length: 52 cm
Lapis lazuli diameter: 8.2 mm
Gold sphere diameter: the smallest are 5.4 mm and the largest 7.7 mm
Total weight: 42.51 g
The gold hallmark is not present, but the jewel has been tested.
