Modernist Mixed-Media Multi-Strand Statement Necklace

This contemporary statement necklace features a multi-layered design incorporating textile, metal, and bead elements. The upper neck portion is constructed from multiple strands of dark violet or deep purple silk or synthetic cords, transitions into a silver-toned metal chain with a lobster claw clasp and extender. The focal 'apron' of the necklace consists of five sculptural teardrop-shaped pendants of varying sizes, the largest being the central drop. These pendants appear to be made of polished silver-colored metal or pewter, featuring inset faceted glass or quartz-like stones with a subtle smoky or iridescent inclusions. Interspersed between these drops are round white pearls (likely freshwater or faux) and small dark red garnet-colored beads, providing a rich color contrast. The construction uses knotted cord terminals and metal crimps to secure the strands. Condition is excellent with no visible tarnishing on the metal components, and the cordage remains taut and vibrant. The style is indicative of modern handcrafted boutique jewelry from the early 21st century, focusing on architectural forms and organic textures.
