Description

  • gold, amethyst, enamel, choker necklace
Composed of green enamel flourishes links, set with round amethysts, length 13 inches.

In excellent condition. The casting and chasing is very refined as is the enamel work. Set with 21 round amethysts of vivid purple color, more saturated and lively than they appear in the catalogue. The enamel is also brighter, with very few minor losses.
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above. Since we are not professional conservators or restorers, we urge you to consult with a restorer or conservator of your choice who will be better able to provide a detailed, professional report. Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion. Illustrations in the catalogue may not be actual size. Prospective purchasers are reminded that, unless the catalogue description specifically states that a stone is natural, we have assumed that some form of treatment may have been used and that such treatment may not be permanent. Our presale estimates reflect this assumption.
