Gold-Tone Snake Chain Bow Necklace

This item is a contemporary fashion necklace featuring a delicate gold-toned snake chain construction. The defining characteristic is a fixed bow motif at the center, accompanied by lariat-style drops terminating in polished spherical beads. The chain is composed of tightly linked round metal segments, providing a smooth, flexible texture. The bow loops are structured by the chain passing through a central round slider or bead, creating a double-loop design with asymmetric tails. The finish exhibits a bright yellow gold luster, typical of electroplated costume jewelry or gold-filled metal. In terms of condition, the piece appears to be in fair to good vintage condition with minor kinks visible in the flexible snake chain segments, which is common for this specific link type. There is no visible oxidation, though the lack of high-resolution detail prevents the confirmation of maker's marks or hallmarks on the clasp. The overall style suggests a mid-to-late 20th-century manufacture, likely a mass-market accessory designed for feminine, everyday wear. The craftsmanship emphasizes fluidity and minimalist wire-like shapes, utilizing the inherent flexibility of the snake chain to define the bow's silhouette.
