The Valdaro Lovers Necklace In Silver

  These skeleton lovers are a hand carved, original piece inspired by a recent archeological find.  A collector of my work turned me onto the this image.  It's very compelling. " Love you to death......" Specs : The piece is 1.3 inches long (33.5mm) and an inch wide (25mm) It's 2.25 mm thick. It's cast as one solid piece of sterling silver. You can't bend it. I doubt even you could break it.  It comes on an open link rolo style chain in your choice of 18, 20 or 24 inch lengths.
