This necklace was inspired by the 1540 Portrait by Agnolo Bronzino (Portrait of a Woman with a Young Boy).

It features elaborate filigree gold-plated beads in a unique lozenge shape.  Each bead is separated by a tiny freshwater Pearl for a bright pop of contrast. 

This necklace is 15" long and is finished on each end with loops so it can be tied closed with a ribbon of your choice.  The length is adjustable by tying the ribbon looser.  Ribbon is not included but I have a selection of ribbons available for purchase here:
