Adam and Eve Necklace
Vintage Adam and Eve pendant with an ornate depiction of the couple in the Garden of Eden. This rare treasure is filled with spectacular details and the patina from the original wash of gold is breathtaking. Sleek serpents grasping the forbidden fruit wind around the reverse side. The sculptural inscriptions loosely translate to "I am your other half". The pendant is marked for sterling silver on the bottom side of the reverse.
The gold patina over sterling silver adds a layer of versatility for wearing with any color chain.
The pendant is one piece and the split is outlined for converting into two pieces by a jeweler.
