Roman Villa Deer Necklace - Light Classical Collection

Description

Part of my Light Classical Collection, a playful tribute to ancient Greek and Roman style.

This necklace was directly inspired by statues in the gardens at the Getty Villa museum in Malibu, California.

Nestled on either side of a garden walkway are two small black deer (reproductions of Roman bronze sculptures from the Villa dei Papiri, Herculaneum).

A petite, hollowback brass deer charm has been painted black and sealed (take ordinary care not to scratch the finish).
The deer dangles under a vintage black and white lucite bead with an elaborate pattern (evoking a decorative floor design seen by the garden benches where the deer statues stand).

The 31 1/2" opera length necklace is made from rich black vintage enameled brass charm chain from Japan, with gleaming golden baubles.

It fastens in back with a gold plated lobster claw clasp.
