Replete with Rococo style and an 18th-century aura, this vintage Italian necklace simply comes alive when worn.

Created in 18k yellow gold, both the chain and ornate matching pendant are punctuated with natural rubies.

With its distinctive four open, scrolling elements, the snake chain is also dotted with rubies. These segue to "S" curves and airy gold work also with more rubies on each side.

Royal blue enamel glass oval with three gold-centered flowers is the focal point. This is set amidst a frame of tiny rubies and a lavish array of gold work. Three drops end with white, illustrious cultured pearls.

Note the rubies are set into 18k white gold although you must look closely to see the hints of color. Even the clasp is just as detailed, with a safety catch for security.

Antique box is for illustration purposes only. All purchases come with a beautiful, hand-made Italian gift box and bow.
