$2,995.00
$2,995.00
A sculpted Gibson Girl portrait forms the centerpiece of this antique watch chain necklace, combining a 14k yellow gold slide with a 62" chain in 7k yellow gold. The woman’s upswept hair and softly modeled features emerge in relief beneath a sweeping curved border, with flowers and flowing foliate forms framing the portrait. Polished highlights contrast with the textured recessed ground, giving depth to the small composition. The sinuous contours and integration of the female figure with botanical ornament reflect the Art Nouveau preference for fluid, organic design. Closely interwoven links give the 2.5mm chain a supple, rope-like appearance, while the slide gathers its two lengths and allows the drape to be adjusted. A swivel watch clasp completes the chain, retaining the functional detail of its original watch-chain format.
