To be absolutely clear, this is a find that we were simply facinated with and couldn't believe anyone could part with! Aside from a thorough cleaning, this necklace is unaltered. We thought it perfect as is and couldn't imagine altering. The woven wire that makes up the necklace gives an overall slinky silky feel against the skin that is simply heavenly. Worn, this necklace would rest right around the base of the neck. The necklace has a gold lobster claw clasp and extender chain. At this time we are offering the necklace alone, but please shop our selection of earrings and construct your own perfect set!
