Description
A fabulous Egyptian-inspired snake collar, built around a steel spring cased in 9ct yellow gold to create a thick, expandable band that slithers fluidly. The serpent’s head and tail unite at the bottom, symbolising eternal love and have been delicately engraved and set with pink ruby eyes (approx. 0.04ct each).
Egyptian-style snake jewellery saw a revival in the 20th Century after an abundance of archaeological discoveries, most notably the discovery of King Tutankhamuns tomb, brought about a fascination and desire for Egyptian-themed pieces across Europe.
Its an ingenious design and a wonderful statement necklace. Its held by a secure, push-release box clasp at the end, complete with a safety catch and Birmingham hallmarks, dating to 1985.
