One of the nicest, early Los Castillo repousse necklaces I have seen, this piece is a pleasure to wear and to behold. Meticulously worked scrolling links with beading and scale details combine in a pectoral that is eye-catching and attractive without being overwhelmingly big. With a wearable length of 16" (might wear a little longer because of the flexibility of the central links , its pectoral part is about 5 1/4" wide and 3 1/4" tall while at the chain, the necklace is just above 1/2" wide. Signed with the taller's early signature in capital straight letters as well as "TAXCO STERLING" and "MADE IN MEXICO" alongside des. no 508, it weighs 85.0 grams, dates in the 1940s and is in excellent vintage condition.
