HANDCRAFTED MULTI-STRAND PACIFIC PINK CORAL TORSION NECKLACE

GOLD-PLATED 925 STERLING SILVER – APPROX. 68 G – APPROX. 51 CM – HANDCRAFTED IN TORRE DEL GRECO, ITALY

A substantial contemporary torsion, also known as a torchon, necklace composed of numerous strands of small polished Pacific pink coral beads.

The individual strands have been carefully hand-strung, balanced and twisted together to create a dense, flexible and three-dimensional structure with elegant volume and continuous movement.

The necklace was individually assembled, finished and inspected by Perna Laboratorio Orafo in Torre del Greco, Naples, Italy, a location internationally associated with specialist coral and jewellery craftsmanship.

MULTI-STRAND TORSION CONSTRUCTION

The necklace consists of numerous individual strands gathered at the terminals and arranged in a controlled spiral.

This labour-intensive construction creates a rich rope-like body in which the strands continuously overlap and alternate. The result is a necklace with visual depth, harmonious proportions and a substantial presence around the neckline.

Achieving a balanced torsion requires careful selection, threading and distribution of the beads, together with precise control of the tension applied to each strand.

This is not an industrially mass-produced necklace or a simple group of parallel strands. It is an individually handcrafted jewel whose structure has been assembled, adjusted and finished by hand.

PACIFIC PINK CORAL

The material is declared by the seller as natural Pacific pink coral, based on the supplier information available to the seller and the professional assessment of the material.

The numerous polished beads display an attractive range of delicate pink, blush and salmon-pink tones. Their subtle tonal variations create depth throughout the twisted structure and allow the colour to change gently according to the angle and lighting.

Minor differences in colour, polish, surface, shape or diameter are consistent with an organic material and with the individually assembled nature of the necklace. These characteristics should not be regarded as defects.

No exact taxonomic species is attributed to the coral in the absence of an independent gemmological report. The stated Pacific provenance is a commercial origin declaration based on the information available to the seller and should not be interpreted as a laboratory determination.

No treatments are known to the seller. However, as no independent laboratory report accompanies the necklace, no definitive laboratory conclusion is made regarding possible treatments, exact biological species or precise geographical origin.

GOLD-PLATED 925 STERLING SILVER MOUNTING

The necklace is completed with decorative end caps, connecting rings and a lobster clasp made of gold-plated 925 sterling silver.

The “925” hallmark is present and clearly visible in the close-up photographs, providing direct visual evidence of the declared silver fineness.

The warm gold-tone finish creates a refined contrast with the pink and salmon shades of the coral, while the shaped end caps gather the numerous strands neatly and securely.

The stated total weight refers to the complete necklace and includes the coral beads, internal stringing material, end caps, connecting rings, clasp and all assembly components.

The weight of the coral and the weight of the sterling silver components have not been determined separately and must not be interpreted as additional to the stated total weight.

The reference to Torre del Greco relates exclusively to the place where the necklace was assembled and handcrafted. It does not constitute a declaration of the biological or geographical origin of the coral.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The weight and length have been measured as accurately as possible but should be considered approximate.

Because this is a flexible multi-strand necklace, its apparent length, curvature, thickness and degree of torsion may vary slightly depending on how it is positioned, measured or worn.

Minor differences in alignment, strand spacing and tension are consistent with authentic handmade production and distinguish the necklace from mechanically standardised jewellery.

The photographs show the exact necklace offered for auction and form an essential and integral part of the description. Prospective bidders are invited to examine all images carefully, including the beads, multi-strand construction, end caps, clasp, visible “925” hallmark and overall condition.

Macro photography may make natural tonal variations, surface characteristics and handcrafted details appear more pronounced than they are to the naked eye.

The actual colours of the coral and metal components may appear slightly different depending on lighting conditions, photographic exposure, screen calibration and the device used to view the images.
