Necklace

This necklace can also be worn as two bracelets. It is made of simple geometric links set with diamonds and emeralds. Dense concentrations of precious stones were characteristic of the jewellery of the 1920s and 1930s. They were ranked together in geometric patterns and held by the most delicate and discreet platinum settings.
