Openwork Filigree Bell Necklace
Openwork Filigree Bell Necklace
The necklace hangs on a simple, brass chain with a rough weave. It doesn't pretend to be jewelry perfection—it possesses a tribal immediacy and functionality. The focal point of the composition is a semicircular, openwork pendant made using the filigree technique, with delicately twisted wires creating a geometric, symmetrical arrangement.
Colored glass beads—intense blue, green, and pink-purple—are embedded in the upper section. Their hue contrasts with the matte shade of the metal, giving the piece a vibrant, almost ceremonial character. The beads are not gemstones—they are colored glass typical of traditional jewelry from the region.
The lower edge of the pendant is surrounded by a dense row of tiny metal balls and small plates. These elements create a dense, resonant band that moves with every movement. The sound is subtle yet distinct – the jewelry isn't silent, it has its own rhythm.
The design is relatively lightweight for the pendant's visual size, making it suitable for both occasional wear and everyday styling. The piece retains its natural patina and traces of handiwork, emphasizing its authentic, artisanal character.
