This is just over the top to die for spectacular! I've had this incredible necklace for approx. 8 years... in my seashell jewelry collection. It was purchased at an antique shop during my traveling around, selling at antique shows years, and I just had to have it. I find that I just did not wear it enough, it is better suited for you ladies with lovely long necks. Mine is just a bit short for this piece, sigh.... It looks spectacular on the gals who can carry these larger statement, pieces. It's a cascading, runway couture, necklace, made with sliced seashells which are all hand wired together forming large, dramatic, flower blossoms. Hand wired into the center of the blossoms are aurora borealis crystal beads. There are nine blossoms altogether, the 3 biggest ones at the center of the necklace also have shells dropping down from them, which, to me, depict leaves. The flowers graduate in size with the largest ones measuring approx. 4" in diameter. The smallest ones at the back of the neck measure approx. 3" in diameter. These are all wired together with sterling silver wire. I did add a vintage extender chain at the back, (non sterling) I felt it needed to be adjustable in length. I can replace this with a sterling silver extender chain if requested. This necklace measures 20" in length with a 4" extender chain for a 24" total adjustable length. It is also heavy weighing approx. 1 lb. By itself. It really didn't completely fit onto my postal scale, I don't have a jewelry scale big enough to accommodate this necklace, lol~ The longest measurement at the center measures approx. 5". Please see all of the photos as they are the main description for this listing. It is in excellent condition, if I missed anything just email me with any questions you may have.
