The stunning necklace exemplifies the grandeur of South Indian temple jewellery. Meticulously crafted in 18k gold, the necklace features cylindrical textured links interspaced with black thread binding, culminating in a central pendant of elaborate repoussé work. The pendant depicts goddess Laxmi and temple-inspired motifs along with fine filigree and lattice patterns. Flanking the central element are two symmetrical side plaques shaped like stylised sunbursts. The necklace is finished with a traditional knot- and-cone closure typical of heritage ornaments from Southern India.
