{"product_id":"vintage-925-sterling-silver-modernist-barrel-link-chain-necklace","title":"Vintage Southwestern Modernist Bench-Made Sterling Silver Linked Tube Chain Necklace 26\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis type of link chain would also be called a tube bead. Its design is characteristic of vintage mid-century modern or Taxco Mexican silver craftsmanship. A unique piece of wearable art featuring individual cylindrical bar segments interlinked together, creating a fluid, minimlist silhouette. Gemstone: The interlinked construction of the tubular beads require each tube to be hand-soldered or linked together with tiny pins. This necklace is hand-soldered. This technique creates a more fluid, durable drape across the collarbone. The hook and eye clasp is a hallmark of Native American (Southwest \/ Navajo \/ Kewa) or vintage Taxco Mexican handmade jewelry. The lack of any hallmarks is common for older, reservation-made Southwestern jewelry or historic artisan bench pieces where hallmarking laws were not strictly enforced. There is wear if you look really hard, but its still a striking piece of Southwestern artisan history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bazaar of Treasures Jewelry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48579243147489,"sku":"BOT-NCKLCE007","price":260.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/5098\/8769\/files\/vintage-925-sterling-silver-modernist-barrel-link-chain-necklace.webp?v=1782071162","url":"https:\/\/bazaaroftreasures.com\/products\/vintage-925-sterling-silver-modernist-barrel-link-chain-necklace","provider":"Bazaar of Treasures™","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
