Vintage Two-Tone Sterling Silver Gold Vermeil Stylized Snake Collar Necklace

Known as the "Tiffany & Co. of Mexico," TANE Mexico 1942 is a prestigious and world-renowned brand recognized for its impeccable high-end silver and gold craftsmanship. This collar, choker, necklace is TANE's vintage two-toned stylized snake link necklace. It's really something! Meticulously crafted with round oxidized sterling silver links and accented by 18k yellow gold vermeil teardrop or snake components. This particular necklace is Mexican Modernism at its finest, with flawless and seamless construction along with blended indigenous geometric art and sleek European modernism. It's a substantial piece weighing in at 164g, and most interestingly, it has clean lines rather than the intricate, hammered textures found in traditional Taxco jewelry. 1970s to late 1990s. Excellent and gently preowned condition. Approximately 16.25". A collector's dream.
