The finely engraved snakehead with a wrapping engraved tail has 3 cabochon turquoise set in his head and 2 garnet cabochons set in his eyes. Suspended from his smiling mouth is a finely engraved heart with an additional 3 cabochon turquoise set stones. All in excellent condition and ever so beautiful. The serpent from the top to the base of the heart measures 40mm. Plunge clasp closes at the side of the mouth. Tests 18KT not marked but tested. An independent gemological appraisal accompanies this necklace at purchase.
