Vintage Sterling Silver Modernist Oval Sculpted Necklace by Birks of Canada
This is one stunning pendant and necklace. The pendant part has been crafted from a single piece of Sterling Silver that has been shaped into an oval form with the ends tucked under to create a three dimensional effect. This has been attached to two curved solid pieces of Sterling Silver to form a sculpted necklace.
Birks was established in 1879 in Montreal, Canada and was one of the most influential silverware makers during the 20th century. Their quality and craftsmanship meant they are often referred to as the 'Tiffany's of Canada' with their jewellery often selling for thousands of dollars at auction.
This necklace has a very fluid, minimalist modern design aesthetic which makes it really eye-catching. The sculpting of the necklace means it sits nicely on the décolletage. A gorgeous piece on its own but I think even more stunning when paired with the matching earrings (which you can find here), it will definitely breathe life into any jewellery collection.
