Victorian Etruscan Revival Gold Collar

Victorian Etruscan Revival Gold Collar

C.1860-1870. A spectacular Victorian Etruscan revival 18k gold collar. The archaeological excavations with the ancient treasures spread inspirations and interests in jewelry making, and Etruscan revival jewelry became largely popular in this Victorian period. The collar sits beautifully around the neck. It is nested in an antique necklace box. A great example of high quality and craftsmanship in Victorian Etruscan jewelry.
