Vintage Gold Tone Scroll Link Chain Necklace

Description
Each link curls inward in a flat double spiral, the pattern of a nautilus shell or a galaxy seen from above. A 1970s–1980s piece in the classic snail link, a chain style that defined bold gold-tone jewelry of the period. The polished faces lie flat and throw a steady, mirror-like light. Substantial without being heavy, it wears well alone and every day.
