Chocolate- Chocolate sapphire, solid oxidized raw sterling brutalist necklace
Chocolate is Bold, industrial, brutalist, maybe midcentury, it merges the polished focal -long, bold, no light weight- in solid oxidized sterling and the rugged reticulated graduated discs that form the piece's body. The discs are not flimsy but solid, made with raw sterling from coins and are joined to each other's with strong solid sterling wire, but this is not all that "is". The stone is something in itself. Set in a purposedly uneven claw setting is a natural huge chocolate sapphire that it seems almost black in the pictures but it is an intense opaque dark brown where the sapphire typical stone veins and lines can be seen under sunlight.
Magnificent and bold, a bargain price if you are familiar with the jewelry markets for pieces of this kind.
It measures around the neck 22 inches approx.
