Today I have a William Spratling first phase triple strand of beads with carved amethyst. The necklace is properly signed and with a heft of 104 grams. The first strand is 19 inches, the second is 20.5 inches and the last is 22 inches. The largest bead is 12mm and the smallest is a 5mm. The necklace is smooth to the hand as well as recently re-strung so it is ready for the next 80 years. Many call the silver beads silver pearls. That is absolutely true with this set as well because of the purity of the silver which these beads are hand made out of. A true treasure, just LOOK AT THAT NECKLACE!
Today we are offering an iconic Matilde Poulat Matl Palomas y Roses necklace. These Palomas come in different lengths and widths and with mostly the same links but always something a little bit different from one another. The patina on this necklace is natural and can be seen best against the white background. The Palomas made by Matl are featured in Penny Morrill's books on Mexican Silver. This Palomas here today is the absolute best size that you can wear any where or with anything. The length is 18 inches but is a wearable of approximately 17inches. The center rose is 2.5in. with dangles. The other links are mostly 1.25in. wide. The Repousse is executed with great skill and lovely carving on all the elements. No dents or damage of any kind and the weight is 90 grams heavy. This example has the tiny turquoise eyes. The pictures make these look larger than they are in real life and do add an adorable charm. This was made when Matilde was working in her shop and is a fantastic old one which is most coveted. This will turn heads and you will hear whispers of "LOOK AT THAT NECKLACE!"
