Soft silver

Maria Theresa Thaler combines with some Ethiopian crosses and a wedding ring, all old silver worn soft over the years. One of my favorite every day necklaces.

Dear Betty, what an adorable grouping, I especially love the particularly worn silver sheen on the two smaller crosses & the wedding ring, the thaler is extremely worn also, kind regards, zhanna

Oh yes, you've cleverly managed to capture the feel of the piece... a beautifully soft light. I can understand why you like to wear it.

Such perfect patina and wear on all of these treasures. Lucky you.

Thank you everyone! They are all lovely pieces... the photo turned out nicely too, even though, or maybe because of it was a bit too dark when I took the picture.
