About the Item

Geometry of Fire and Gold As if shaped from ancient ash and alchemy. Handcrafted in 1970, this bold, sculptural necklace juxtaposes volcanic lava stone with alternating cubes of brushed mixed metal—each element echoing both earth and artifice. The result is a rhythmic procession of matte black and glinting gold, a study in contrasts that feels simultaneously primitive and modernist. Heavy in the hand yet balanced on the neck, this piece speaks in a quiet, elemental language—of form, texture, and restrained power. Date: 1970 Material: Lava stone and mixed metal Design: Alternating cube motif Length: 17.0 inches Weight: 103.5 grams Closure: Lobster clasp Condition: Excellent vintage condition Internal ID: NE65040 For the one who wears structure like second skin.
