Description |
English: Jewelry design for a necklace. Four chains of pearls form a horizontal band at top and a curving band below, attached to the horizontal chains by rosettes of leaves. Evenly-spaced rosettes of similar style adorn both chains. Hanging from the center of the horizontal band's largest rosette is a knotted ribbon that holds a drop. Hanging from the center of the curving band's central rosette is a hanging chandelier of four chains consisting, alternatingly, of one and two pearls. |
