Description:
A Napier bamboo style necklace features a silver tone bamboo style double circle pendant hung on a silver tone chain. Weight 89.2 grams. Necklace length 48 cm. Pendant size 7 x 7 cm. Napier established its reputation by standing out from the crowd, their style was large, bold and chunky, which was very different to other designs at the time. At one time, the fashion industry was dominated by Napier jewellery, and was highly sought after and worn by famous personalities of the time including Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelly, Arlene Francie and the Duchess of Windsor. Today, Napier jewellery is still a favourite for avid jewellery Collectors or those with a keen interest in fashion. This is one of the subtly exotic and imaginative pieces that marked Napier's edgy departure from staid classics. Pieces such as this one are what helped catapult Napier to coveted collectible status.
