An exceptional and rare masterwork of German Art Deco silversmithing, this articulated festoon necklace is forged in solid 925 sterling silver with deep contrast antique oxidation. The theatrical centerpiece features sweeping geometric scrolls, openwork architectural brackets, and navette-shaped link extensions entirely encrusted with glittering pavé-set pyrite marcasites. Bezel-set at the heart is a faceted hexagonal tablet of vivid royal-blue lapis lazuli (or sodalite / cobalt glass matrix) radiating bold color against the metallic sheen. The bib flows gracefully into a sophisticated double-strand flat curb chain, fastening with a traditional ring clasp, and is clearly stamped on the reverse of the centerpiece with an authentic 925 silver purity hallmark.
