Splendidly proportioned 'Swan' necklace by Mimi Castillo, 21st century heiress to the silversmithing tradition and inventive artistry of Los Castillo. Suspended from curved, overlapped links which give this piece exceptional grace and flexibility, the swan rises in triumphant flight, caught precisely at the moment she has mastered three of the four elements: Earth, Water and Air. Castillo captures her grace and power with breathtaking workmanship and imaginative flair. An astonishing piece, looks wonderful on!
