if this necklace could talk! it's had a few lifetimes and it's been a long while since it was worn regularly. it's a striking, unusual design that offers plenty of symbolism with incredible weight that feels great on the chest.
most recently it was in the possession of a longtime vintage jewelry dealer who had it for some time because it needed some jump rings replaced, which scared many buyers away.
each horseshoe is its own little universe — they're all slightly different in size and feature different natural turquoise cabochons in sawtooth bezels. while the horseshoe links are bench made, the rest of the necklace is hand assembled and held together with jump rings that are NOT soldered shut, which hints that the paperclip chain might have been a replacement
