Silk Necklace
This is a necklace. It was designed by Annamaria Zanella. It is dated 2002 and we acquired it in 2022. Its medium is smithed, impressed and enameled gold, magnets (clasp). It is a part of the Product Design and Decorative Arts department.
Inspired by the luxurious early 20th-century plissé Fortuny fabrics, the surface of Zanella’s brooch consists of bright yet velvety shades of gold disrupted by passages of black and red lacquer in graceful, ribbon-like effects.
