This Victorian Etruscan Revival gold necklace certainly falls under the category of 'Museum Piece'! During the Etruscan Revival period of the 1800's, jewelers and craftsmen sought to replicate the finely detailed gold work of the newly discovered ancient Etruscan artifacts. This is evident in this necklace: the quality of workmanship in the hollow-ware, filigree covered components is absolutely outstanding. Each piece slides individually on the original, woven chain. The condition is excellent, the quality is out of this world. Metal: 18K Yellow Gold Width: 30 mm Length: 18 Inches SKU #: 3P6T85 Each piece has been identified and graded by a Graduate Gemologist who has been certified by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA).
