Viana Beads Necklace (8mm)
Difference
-
Today’s Viana beads, which are hollow (and were once even lighter), are direct descendants of Greek, Phoenician, Roman and Etruscan beads, the Etruscan ones being closest to those made today. The granulation and the surrounding filigree were never more than ornament: what always mattered was the round, spherical shape. A woman from Viana would acquire her bead necklace before the much-desired gold rope chain. It was often bought one bead at a time with the young woman’s modest savings, usually earned from selling eggs or trading chickens.
-
This piece is made in 925 sterling silver, 9K gold and 19K gold. All our pieces are hallmarked by the Porto Assay Office, which guarantees the quality of the materials used.
- Silver/Gold Weight: 18/19g
- Length: 45cm (but we can make it in any length you like)
- Viana beads, 8mm in diameter
-
We ship worldwide from Portugal. For more information, see Shipping & Returns.
Gold pieces are made to order, especially for you. Three out of four leave our workshop within 3 business days, and the maximum is 15 business days.
