Antique Italian Griffin Gryphon 800 Silver Pendant Necklace Fleur de lis Chain

Antique Italian ~ Griffin Gryphon 800 Silver Pendant Necklace Fleur de lis Chain

Hidden Treasures is pleased to offer, for your consideration, this incredible necklace that I believe to have been crafted in Italy during the early 1900’s.  I believe that it was designed by either Peruzzi or Coppini, but I am unable to find identifying marks anywhere on this piece.  I have seen other work by each of them that contains elements that are identical to links within this piece.  There are some indentations on the underside of the hind quarter of the griffin that appear as though they could be hallmarks, however they are indiscernible.

This particular necklace fashioned out of .800 silver, and contains a decorative chain with an attached pendant.  The pendant features a highly detailed griffin that is balanced upon a pedestal.It hangs upon a chain that was crafted out of alternating links of flowers, fleur de lis, gargoyles, and other mythical creatures.  The necklace is in , and a mild polishing will significantly brighten the silver.

This is an enchanting work of art tells a story, and will definitely be a topic of conversation.  Don’t miss out on the rare opportunity of owning such a magnificent masterpiece!!
