Modernist sterling silver pendant with a large red carnelian cabochon by Finnish designer Martta Ritvanen who founded the jewelry company Kaunis Koru. This fantastic and rare classically mid century minimalist styled necklace includes a 16" sterling snake chain.
Condition: Very good vintage condition with very light surface wear and light patina on the silver. Personal preferences vary greatly for the amount of patina on vintage jewelry, therefore I tend to sell jewelry "as found" and leave polishing up to the new owner.
Size: The pendant is just over 1 1/4" long and just over 1" wide.
