This set is well known to collectors. Some insist that they were made by Selro, but I don't think so - at least not this one. The Seven Immortals are a part of Buddhist and Tao religions, and date back many years. It is very unusual to find a whole parure - so I was excited when I saw this one. I have had it for quite a while so that I could enjoy it, but I think is time now to let someone else have it. The necklace is a choker, 12 inches long with a 3 1/2 inch extender...
