VERDURA
GOLD 'REGATTA' NECKLACE
Of knotted rope design, composed of textured gold links.
For a similar necklace, see Verdura: The Life and Work of a Master Jeweler by Patricia Corbett, page 173.
First produced in the 1960's, the "Regatta" design remains an important part of Verdura's collection to this day. This more recent example beautifully illustrates the very literal inspiration drawn from nautical knotwork.
