Circa 1970. There is no second one.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis circa-1970 Oaxacan silver filigree necklace is an heirloom in the precise sense of the word: a piece that was made to outlast its maker and has done exactly that. Hand-wrought strands of sterling silver form an airy, intricate design in the \u003cem\u003efiligrana oaxaqueña\u003c\/em\u003e tradition — patient, precise, and unmistakably refined. Luminous pearls punctuate the metalwork, softening the silver's brilliance with organic warmth. The original clasp is intact. At 36 inches and 112 grams, it has the substantial presence of museum-quality work and the wearability of a piece made to be worn, cherished, and passed on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout this piece\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis necklace was made during what collectors consider the golden era of Oaxacan silver artistry — the 1960s and 1970s, when family workshops in the historic jewelry quarter produced \u003cem\u003efiligrana\u003c\/em\u003e at a level of ambition and labor that is almost entirely absent from contemporary production. The craftsmanship reflects that era: each wire hand-twisted, each element individually soldered, the whole built from patience that few workshops today will invest. It was sourced directly from a private Oaxacan collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; craftsmanship\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sterling silver, hand-twisted filigree\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStone \/ Accent:\u003c\/strong\u003e Luminous pearls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTechnique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Traditional \u003cem\u003efiligrana oaxaqueña\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProvenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Private Oaxacan collection, circa 1970\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClasp:\u003c\/strong\u003e Original clasp, intact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 112 grams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eLength: 36.0 inches (91.4 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStyling\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 36-inch filigree necklace commands a simple backdrop — a clean neckline, a solid color.
