A masterclass in mid-century structuralism, this Modernist Gilded Pendant is a rare find for the collector of avant-garde jewelry. Drawing inspiration from the Brutalist movement, the piece features a hand-wrought aesthetic with a layered, tiered-disc silhouette. The interplay between the radiant, mirror-polished gold tone and the deep, organic "bark" textures creates a mesmerizing depth that commands attention without being ostentatious.
The pendant is suspended from an exquisite baton-link chain, a sophisticated departure from standard links that lends the piece a clean, architectural profile. Secured by a vintage barrel clasp, this necklace is as much a statement of personal style as it is a nod to the visionary designers of the 1960s and 70s.

Tips for your listing:
-
The "Luxury" Factor: High-end buyers look for measurements in millimeters (mm) alongside inches. It feels more "expert."
-
The Clasp: If the barrel clasp is original and works perfectly, highlight that—it’s a sign of quality.
-
Weights: If you have a jewelry scale, adding the weight in grams (e.g., "A substantial 24g weight") adds to the perceived value.
