Note du spécialiste

This necklace features foil-backed emeralds and diamonds. The foil enhances the brilliance of the stones, despite their closed mounts. The arrangement of the gems and the lack of engraving or enamel on the reverse reveals Western influence, however, the adjustable cord is a quintessential feature of traditional Indian jewelry.
