    What can I say, stunning!!!!   Is the back rounded or flat?  Still a stunner even in this day and age.

    Peter: I just cannot imagine such details and perfection of work, which is behind my imagination...

    So perfect and detailed that must have been made for a very wealthy lady.. Congratulations Peter for this master piece.

    Dear Ingrid and Musfafa; Many thanks for your comments. The necklace is flattish at the back and features a very interesting and definitely rare linkage between the individual pieces. Furthermore, the fine filigree at the end is superb. This is definitely not an every day jewelry.

    Definitely not an every day one Peter. Very superb by everybody's standard. GR. Ingrid.
