Description

Italian Modernist Wave Necklace Sterling Silver & 18K Yellow Gold | 16.5 ″ Length | Hidden Clasp Made in Italy A compelling example of late 20th century Italian modernist jewelry, this sculptural necklace pairs a rhythmic pulse of tubular sterling silver links with warm accents of 18K solid gold, all united by a seamless hidden clasp. At 16.5 ″ long, it sits elegantly at the collarbone, balancing architectural purity with subtle luxury. Each link measures approximately ½″ long × 3–4 mm wide, creating a refined tactile rhythm that underscores the piece’s design integrity. The mixed-metal composition and precision engineering are characteristic of Italian workshop production centered in Vicenza, Arezzo, and Milan during the post-modern and late modernist periods.
