This precious vintage snake will surely slink straight into your heart! If you love snake jewelry like I do, you will not want to pass over this fine specimen! Crafted of solid 18K gold and weighing over 12 grams, this snake is truly substantial! With deep sculptural texturing overlaid with lovely transparent alternating green and red enameling, and pink, pigeon's blood ruby eyes--she is an example of superb free-form silver-smithing popular in mid-century decorative arts! I'm naming her Sylvia--just because!
