Bidspirit auction | Malachite bead necklace. European School.

Malachite bead necklace. European School. 20th century - Polished malachite and 14-karat gold. Measures 13 x 10 cm. Necklace composed of spherical malachite beads in an intense green hue, articulated by spacers and a 14-karat gold clasp with fluted decoration. The regularity of the beads and the alternation of gold elements create a balanced and elegant ornamental rhythm, where the saturated color of the stone takes center stage. The polished surface enhances the mineral's natural variations and establishes a refined contrast with the gold accents. The piece belongs to the 20th-century European jewelry tradition, which revived materials with a strong chromatic presence within designs of clean lines and distinguished everyday wear. Its visual impact derives from the intensity of the green, the precision of the assembly, and the understated elegance of its ornamental language. 13 x 10 cm
