Gothic Butterfly Pendant Necklace

This item is a contemporary fashion necklace featuring a stylized butterfly pendant suspended from a fine link chain. The pendant exhibits a gothic or 'dark aesthetic' design, characterized by its darkened silver-toned metal finish, possibly an oxidized base metal or antiqued sterling silver. The butterfly's wings are intricately detailed with linear textures, simulating natural wing patterns through a combination of raised metalwork and darkened recesses. At the center of the butterfly sits a small, faceted dark stone or glass cabochon, likely obsidian, onyx, or an imitation synthetic gem, which acts as the body. The pendant is attached to the chain via a standard bail, and a small flower or star-shaped charm is visible just above the main pendant on the chain, adding a decorative asymmetric element. The chain itself is a delicate cable-style link with a spring-ring or lobster-type clasp at the end for closure. In terms of condition, the piece shows some signs of surface wear and light oxidation consistent with regular use, but no major structural damage is visible. The craftsmanship suggests a mass-market or boutique production from the late 20th or early 21st century, falling into the category of 'alt' or 'grunge' fashion jewelry.
