An exceptional example of a solid silver, traditional North Indian, Rajasthan state crafted necklace.
This intricately braided silver rope necklace is in the artisan technique for which the region’s tribal and artisan silversmiths are renowned.
The handwoven, solid silver rope necklace showcases delicious texture, depth, flexibility, strength and beauty.
In Rajasthan, the tradition of tribal jewellery is centuries-old. Historically, here, as in many parts of India, silver served both as adornment and as a portable store of wealth.
This incredible neckpiece has a rich oxidised patina that highlights the woven detailing.
The chain has a lovely length of 46cm with the braided width being 9mm wide. It weighs an impressive 57.8 grams in sterling silver.
This woven neckpiece is a timeless piece of wearable history with impressive weight and presence.
