Cleopatra loved her Snakes

Cleopatra would be proud to wear a collar necklace like this. Her favorite creatures, (serpents and snakes) surround three large jeweled cabachons that are ruby color and jade color. Set in a wide ( 2" with an additional 2" drop for the cross) hinged European collar with many drops that hang from it. A large signed ( can't make it out) Gothic cross with a glass venetian bead that is sterling ( the necklace is not sterling, just the bead). The necklace measures 19" long on the inside. It is a very impressive old piece for sure!

Pure Gothic Assemblage

This really old cross needed a perfect place to reside the rest of its life so what better place than with a 1920's deco non working watch and black rosary beads? The watch is so detailed with fancy etchings on the case and a blue stone wider. The necklace measures 24" long with an additional 4 3/4" drop for the cross and necklace. The cross has three original stones and the center one is hand cut paste. A neat old relic!
