To give you close up photos in order to see every little detail,can also tend to make the item look much more larger than in actuality. Remember, my monitor may show differently than yours. **I photographed this with 2 different colored backdrops,so please go through to see any variation in color. **I do not consider myself a 'professional photographer" but I do try to give you photos that are 'realistic" in color,just so you're not shocked, nor disappointed when you get the piece. If you're not home in the day & need it shipped where it can be signed for,please change that in your "Ship To" section before I create the shipping label* ***Because of the price,this will have a mandatory signature confirmation requirement. STONE: Amethyst/Turquoise/Italian Red CoralĬONDITION: Not new! Very well kept-pre owned & wearable condition.This had a stone missing (A turquoise one) at the back by the closure & was like this when I got it & since taking the photos,the stone has been replaced.So now it's in tip-top condition!Īll vintage sold "As Is".If there's any defects,they will be mentioned in the listing.If you have ANY questions,please don't hesitate in contacting me! Made with evenly matched 8 mm round cabochons of amethyst & 3-4 mm red coral & green turquoise that are used as accents. The impeccable workmanship is phenomenal,when you figure that when the design & stones were laid on a sheet of sterling,he then precisely sawed out those areas where the lacy areas are open.(See backside of necklace) Each panel has somewhat of a trapezoid shape & each panel is then connected by a strip of sterling. It's pieces like this that make Mexican vintage so mouthwatering desirable! This is literally a 'Piece of Art"!!! It's designed with 19 panels where the design is repeated in it's entirety & follows the lower part of the neck,which personally I believe statement pieces always look their best! This is a "Pre-Eagle" necklace,meaning that it was made before 1948,when the Eagle stamp was mandatory for everything being sold in & coming out of Mexico. ![]() (Ismael Rivera & an artist that goes by "CEL" were a few I know of) Like MATL, Dominguez's work is as meticulous, extremely precise & highly ornate while giving you a wondrous, alluring look that was created during the height of Mexican Silver Renaissance Days. There were a few (with Dominguez being one) that emulated Matl's style so perfectly & if you didn't look at the hallmark,your 1st guess would be Poulat's.Not sure about Dominguez, but a few that I'm aware of, actually worked under Poulat & worked out of Mexico City. If your a fan of Matilde Poulat's (MATL) incredible baroque style & very signature look,then you can't help but fall in love with the next best thing & that is the jewelry by Dominguez. ![]() I pulled a few pieces that are just not worn as much as I think they should be & even though I adore every piece I own,some are not worn as much as others, so I will be posting other pieces in the weeks head.(All vintage Mexican) I know I may regret selling some,since these pieces cannot be easily replaced! This gorgeous piece is a part of my own private collection that I have had tucked away for at least 20 years.
