1969 Swedish 18k Gold necklace - 50g Graduated double link chain - 16.6 inch length

I love this link style - and a WEIGHTY one too!

Swedish made in 1969, this piece is handmade in solid 18K gold, measures 16.6 inches in lenth length, and weighs an excellent 50.38 grams(!). This graduated double link necklace is a classic you'll love to wear. 

This link type is called a double-link. Pairs of links run side by side - like two curb chains delicately soldered, link by link, to form a double length of links. Links in this style are smooth and supple and do not snag on clothing.

Links are gradually smaller and larger to elegantly transition around your neck. Imagine making these individual links to perfectly create that gradation - I find this level of goldsmithing astonishing in it's handmade precision.

Piece has full Swedish hallmarks for maker, date, location and gold purity.

lovely, lovely piece

I had been watching this fancy link bracelet for a while and am so glad it stuck around for me. A gift for my daughter who loves it.

Unusual smokey quartz pendant

I saw it. I fell in love with it. I had to have it. With a short text and a phone call to Jill, it became mine. I truly did not think that it would be possible for me to wear this beautiful piece as the original rolo-link chain that the stone hung from was only 16.5 inches in length. I needed at least a 20 inch chain. Undaunted, Jill told me that she would look for a longer chain in the same rolo-link style but with a lobster clasp that I prefer. Not long after I received a video showcasing the longer chain that Jill had found to replace the original shorter one. Jill’s video contained dialogue with close-ups of the chain as she dangled it over and through her fingers. After giving her my enthusiastic approval, I had the pendant on the new longer chain within a day or two, and it was perfect. I wore my beautiful quartz pendant for the first time on Mother’s Day and received several compliments on it. Thank you, Jill, for making my wish come true. ❤️
