925 Silver Necklace with Articulated Turtle Pendant
This lot is a 925 silver necklace finished with a turtle pendant. The pendant is modelled in the form of a sea turtle, with a textured, scaled shell, flippers and head, and is suspended from a fine silver chain with a lobster-style clasp. The chain is of a smooth, flexible construction. The pendant is described as articulated, and its flippers and head are modelled as separate elements, giving the piece a three-dimensional, naturalistic character.
Condition and Collector Interest
The necklace is offered in the condition shown in the lot images, with no maker’s mark or brand identified. Prospective buyers are welcome to view the lot in person before the sale to assess its condition for themselves. Silver animal pendants of this kind are popular with collectors of costume and silver jewellery, and this example will appeal to those who favour nautical or marine-themed pieces.
