Indian Snake Chain Necklace

Flat, fluid and woven so closely it behaves like fabric.

This snake chain necklace comes from India and is made of silver. Snake chains of this type are commonly made of tightly linked segments that move like a ribbon, and silver jewelry is widely worn across the subcontinent. The chain shown is a flat band of herringbone pattern, its tiny angled links lying in neat rows along a center line. The surface is a cool, soft grey with a gentle shine and no pendant or clasp in view.

About seventeen inches long. It drapes like water and goes with nearly everything.
