This piece is inspired by the beautiful and magical upward-curved rooftops of East-Asia.  The sense of movement and intricate decoration on these traditional buildings has been reflected in the curved shapes of the necklace and the filigree-style connectors.

Each ruby section of this necklace comprises three architectural layers; a rooftop of rubies, a surround of decorative overhanging eaves, and a gallery foundation at the base.

Details: 18 carat yellow gold. Burmese rubies 59.4cts. Three large ‘rooftops’ measure approx 4.5cm x 4.5cm. Ten smaller ‘rooftops’ measure approx 3.5cm x 3.5cm. Handmade.
