An ornate necklace with an irresistible antique charm,this is sure to become a heirloom.
The pendant is hung on a unique design chain handmade in silver. Crafted using techniques used in ancient South Indian antique gold temple jewellery the entire piece is crafted in pure Sterling silver(92.5%) and oxidised.
