the United States. Circa 1965. It has dimensional "molten" looking articulated sections with a hook and chain at the back, and brilliant very large glass
stones in aqua, chartreuse, and yellow. The emerald cut stones are unfoiled and openbacked. The photos do not capture the brilliance and quality of the

In the 1960s and 1970s, Ciner specialized in costume jewelry inspired by the enameled gold and jeweled figural animal designs of the fine jewelry maker
David Webb (these days Roberto Cavalli is the contemporary master of the costume version of this look). This piece is circa 1975. It is marked
CINER, but so faintly on the tongue of the clasp that I was unable to get a clear photo. It did come from an estate with other signed Ciner pieces...
