Louise Nevelson began making jewelry for herself and her friends in the 1960s. Similar to this Untitled Pendant, ‘Nevelson’s items of jewelry are really sculptures on a reduced scale, and demonstrate the same creative drive as her monumental works.’ (Diane Venet, ed., From Picasso to Jeff Koons, The Artist as Jeweler, Skira, 2011, p. 134)
