Item Description

This is a beautiful handmade necklace with serpentine stone pendant with an exquisite golden brown silk cord. Made by San Francisco designer Pat Tseng, this piece would make the perfect Christmas gift for the special woman in your life.

Item Special Note

PAT TSENG has been designing jewelry since the mid seventies and her works have been featured in numerous institutions including the Bowers Museum of Cultural Arts, the De Young Art Museum, the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. In her necklaces, the artist uses materials such as jades, silver, coral, ivory, and other semi precious stones. Choosing them carefully, she combines these materials with silk cords, painstakingly handsewn to the desired width. These tube like silk cords have become Tseng's signature design. When people describe Pat Tseng's adornments, like general consensus, several terms are used recurrently: refined, ethereal, and graceful.
