A wonderful, vintage, lapis lazuli fringe necklace, modeled in 14k yellow gold by the well-known Italian makerUnoAErre. This necklace features aseries of ten vibrant-blue lapis cabochons, some of which are flecked with painterly, golden, pyrite inclusions. These lapis cabs are held in smooth, low-profile bezels— the bezels are connected by single jump rings, and a length ofsparkling cable chain completes the necklace. Closure is a spring ring clasp. This fringe necklace is really striking, andit lays flat against the body, in wear. We love the perfect procession ofbright blue circles here . . . the bubbly, graphic quality they impart. . . and the necklace's meticulous construction. This is marked 585 for 14k gold purity, and AR1* for the makerUnoAErre.
