Antique negligee necklace, the drop built from two opalescent enamel bows in silver, linked by a run of three oval rubies and finishing in a garnet drop, hung from an 18KT gold trace chain.
Each bow is worked as looped ribbon, the enamel laid between raised silver ribs and fired to a milky white that shifts through pale blue and lilac as it turns. The rubies sit in closed collets between beaded links, and the pear cabochon garnet swings from the lower bow. The chain fastens with a T bar. The original fitted case is included.
