The Indira Necklace

The Indira Necklace

This striking necklace is a study in contrasting yet harmonious textures and tones, a one-sided design that makes a bold and intentional statement. It features a mixed metal composition, with a substantial 24k gold-plated, hand-crafted paperclip chain forming the majority of the necklace. This chain offers a modern and slightly industrial feel with its elongated, rectangular links.

Asymmetrically integrated into the paperclip chain is a section of a more intricate, twisted gold chain, adding a touch of textural richness and visual interest. The two chain styles converge at a large, circular gold ring, which acts as a central connector and focal point.

Suspended from this ring is the pendant itself: a round one sided eye pendant of an Elephant rendered in silver tone. The elephant facing forward showing a powerful presence. The details of its trunk, tusks (if visible), and ears contribute to its realistic or stylized portrayal.  The pendant features a textured, gold-toned outer ring reminiscent of sun rays or a compass, adding a sense of radiance and direction. Within this outer ring sits a circular, silver-toned  

The name Indira (Sanskrit) signifies "beauty." However, it is also deeply associated with Indira Gandhi, a powerful and influential figure in Indian history. She was known for her strength and determination.
