Two antique solid gold cornicello: one 18k rose gold, the other 14k textured yellow gold. Four antique orange/red/variegated coral with solid gold findings; one vintage (1970's) 14k yellow gold black coral pendant and one vintage 14k yellow gold mother of pearl. On hand strung lapis lazuli and blue sapphire necklace. Personal collection of American painter Rebecca George, b. 1972 in Chicago.
I know you know but your collection is amazing.
I love the mother of pearl mixed in there.
Thank you kindly! I have two mop horns but this is the curly one. I recently learned the oldest story explaining coral horns is from the titans-- they beheaded Medusa and the blood from her head snakes poured into the sea. That blood became the red/orange coral and have the power of reversing the evil eye.
