Larimar and Silver-toned Wire-Wrapped Lariat Necklace

This item is a necklace featuring numerous light blue, irregular-shaped stones, likely larimar given their distinctive color and mottled appearance, set in a silver-toned metal. The necklace is designed in a 'Y' or lariat style, with a continuous chain forming the top portion and a tassel-like drop at the bottom. The stones are wire-wrapped, with each individual stone secured by metal wire that also forms the links connecting them. The wire-wrapping technique appears consistently applied throughout the piece, suggesting hand craftsmanship. The stones vary in size, with most being small, roughly tumble-polished nuggets or chips, but culminating in a larger, tear-drop shaped stone at the very end of the lariat drop. The metal appears to be sterling silver or a silver-plated base metal, exhibiting a bright, reflective sheen. There are no obvious signs of significant wear such as heavy tarnish, kinks in the chain, or missing stones. The overall condition appears good, with the stones displaying a smooth, polished surface characteristic of polished gemstones. No discernible maker's marks or signatures are visible in the provided images. The style suggests a contemporary or modern artisan piece, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century, fitting a bohemian or nature-inspired aesthetic. The quality of the stone polishing and the wire-wrapping seems competent, indicating a well-made costume or semi-fine jewelry piece.
