Another Sssnake, this is a necklace made from woven hair.
Head and tail forming the clasp, hallmarked with ram's head for Paris 1819/1838!
The figure of snake biting it's tail is metaphoric for infinity. Too used for endless love (awww!)
This is certainly a love token, not mourning.
But.... Never been able to wear it!
Why?
It scratches the neck awfully!!!
Adorable though, don't you think so?

Thanks Roy and Agram :-)
I love this so much! I wish I had it for my Greek goddess wedding dress!
Thank you for your kind comment endanubis, please post your collection!
Love it. One of the coolest things today!
Thanks to the 19 snake lovers ;-)
I have to ask why is there hair in it ?
Hi Caperkid! Georgians and Victorians made a lot of sentimental or mourning jewellery :-)
The snake biting its tail is symbolic for eternity.
This necklace can be either sentimental, either mourning piece!
Ok thanks for info. Kyra.
