The links gradually increase in size toward the dramatic pointed center section, giving the necklace an elegant architectural silhouette.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe necklace is marked 950, MEXICO and appears to bear the registration mark TD-107 not a clear mark though!!!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe “950” indicates a silver fineness of 95%, slightly higher than standard .925 sterling silver.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe TD-107 mark appears to follow Mexico’s letter-number hallmarking system introduced around 1979. In this system, T denotes Taxco; however, I have not been able to read the mark properly as it is just too worn.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeasurements:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApproximately 18” long\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLargest center link: approximately 1 1\/8” long × 3\/8” wide\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSmallest links: approximately 1\/2” long × 1\/4” wide\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMarks: 950 \/ MEXICO \/ appears TD-107 difficulty to confirm due to the mark being worn.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: 950 silver with polished black stone\/inlay. Stones appear to be onyx but have not been tested.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very good vintage condition with expected surface scratches, patina and signs of previous wear to the silver. The articulated links give the necklace excellent movement and allow it to contour beautifully around the neckline. Please review photographs carefully as they form an important part of the condition description.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStyling: This is a fabulous statement necklace—the combination of polished black and silver gives it a sophisticated, almost architectural look. It would be especially striking against a simple black dress, crisp white shirt or high-neck knit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e❗❗ JEWELRY CASES AND ANY OTHER ITEMS SHOWN ARE FOR STAGING\/DISPLAY ONLY AND ARE NOT INCLUDED. ❗❗\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStaging props are not included.
