The artist of this piece is unknown except for her hallmark, which
is unfortunate since she deserves accolades for this wonderful
studio neck collar. The huge glowing center cabochon with its hues
of mottled gray and brown lies beautifully on the upper chest,
while the extravagantly arched back drop cabochons ride sensually
between the shoulder blades. A masterfully-designed and superbly-executed
collar, this studio modernist piece is fit for a goddess.
