Margot de Taxco Mexican silver foliate bow Necklace

One of Margot de Taxco’s most romantic, delicately elegant yet still eye-catching and beautifully made necklaces, the “foliate bow” is characterized by generous micro-beading accented by just the right touch of oxidation. The chain’s riveted links rest perfectly around the neck while the intricately woven central station brings to mind earlier, Old World “lovers’ knot” jewelry…

Size / Weight: 16 1/2” long (wearable); central station is 2 1/2” wide with a drop of 1”; width at the chain is 3/16”; 36.0 grams

Hallmarks / Date: fully marked with Margot’s signature as shown as well as “STERLING MADE IN MEXICO”, Eagle 15 assay mark and des. no 5346; 1950s-60s

Condition: excellent vintage with the attention to detail and the superb craftsmanship Margot jewelry is known and collected for, very nice patina (especially heavy on the back yet easily polished out, if you wish), with no damage and no repairs noted
