Necklace

The gold necklace of eleven pendants with ten spacer beads and one terminal. The design of one pendant consists of an oval cabochon crystal set within a beaded surround enclosed by two repoussé worked dolphins face-to-face from the tails of which hang three plaited chains ending in flat gold disks. At the top is attached a spherical bead the surface fully decorated with micro-granules. The other pendant is of quatrefoil design with seven cloisons inlaid with white orthoclase feldspar and three chains with flat gold disks hanging below; the bead on top of this pendant is plain. The spacer beads between each pendant are of openwork design of circles inlaid with white orthoclase feldspar and studded with granules. The terminal is in the form of an animal face inlaid with orthoclase feldspar and black agate outlined with granulated beading. While the necklace was strung through the beads, there is also a series of gold tubes at the back for anothercord to pass through.
