The necklace features a regular alternation of round white beads with a pearlescent finish, punctuated by small spherical green beads and chiselled golden spacers, adding relief and contrast to the ensemble.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe centrepiece of this jewellery is an imposing golden-coloured pendant, depicting a stylised head surmounted by a semi-circular headdress adorned with relief motifs. This pendant, of archaic or tribal inspiration, immediately catches the eye and gives the necklace a strong visual personality, evoking the assemblage jewellery of the 70s or costume creations inspired by Pre-Columbian art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe necklace's assembly is punctuated by the repetition of sections composed of mother-of-pearl beads, separated by green beads and twisted-motif golden rings. The clasp is not visible in the photo, but the overall impression is one of harmony and robustness, typical of quality vintage costume jewellery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe colour palette combines the luminous white of the beads, the deep green of the small intermediate beads, and the warm golden hue of the pendant and spacers. The overall look of the necklace is refined, with a retro touch that perfectly complements vintage or bohemian fashion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe side shown in the photo does not reveal any major visible defects: the beads appear to be in good condition, the gilding is well preserved with no obvious signs of oxidation, and the pendant shows no apparent chips. Some small irregularities on the beads and metal are indicative of an artisanal style, typical of period costume jewellery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold in the visible used condition.
