Outstanding Julio Marsella Breastplate and Pendant Necklace

Item #DJ118271

Shortest portion of necklace measures 19" long. Ornate breastplate portion measures 3" in diameter. Detachable pendant measures 1-3/8 x 1-5/8" and drops 8-3/4" below the breastplate. The pendant drop can be removed and this wonderfully dynamic and complex necklace can be worn as a simple breastplate on a double twisted rope chain, or the simple spring ring clasps allow it to be added back for a tiered effect. The breastplate and pendant are plated in old-gold and decorated with hand-applied Modernist loops which stand in high relief against the hammered metal base. Marked JULIO MARSELLA. This is an exceptional piece dating to the 1960s. No signs of wear or use. $165.00 (Includes insured shipping to a U.S.A. address)
