Circa 1930's-1940's, this is a spectacular hand-wrought pectoral necklace.
Hallmarked simply "Sterling 925", I do believe it to be Mexican in origin. The style and manner are very much in keeping with the work of Geraldo Lopez, Los Castillo, and Alfredo Villasana.
This stunning necklace lays perfectly upon the neck. The center portion measures 6" wide, 4" tall.
Closed, wearable length is 16". Closure is a "J" hook.
Weight is 86.9 grams.

The repousse work is outstanding on this design 543 Los Castillo bracelet. It is 2 inches tall with a hook closure. The old linear hallmark and the design itself shows that this was the work of Margot Van Voorhies when married to Antonio Castillo. Together they formed the taller Los Castillo. The links are rounded to fit the arm perfectly and are 6.75 inches long. An outstanding bracelet to add to a collectors wardrobe. It will be noticed by all that gaze upon it.
Fabulous early silver necklace with round and baguette paste stones, and a huge cut glass center pendant framed by paste stones. 1900 - 1920. Possibly French. Not marked but tests positive for sterling silver. With a dainty slide clasp also set with stones. The square link side chain is made to fall slightly to the sides so the stones on the chain are visible from either
side. From a Philadelphia estate.
A classic collectible Art Deco piece, and currently perfectly of the moment as well...
