Drawing inspiration from antiquity, this stunning 22K yellow gold necklace is an iconic design from the revered Jean Mahie. The sculptural composition demonstrates the atelier's mastery of merging ancient aesthetic principles with bold contemporary expression. The hand-hammered technique creates a textured surface that captures and reflects light from multiple angles, producing an ever-changing play of golden luminescence. The substantial weight and presence of the 22K gold speak to the jewelry house's commitment to using only the finest materials. At the same time, the organic form evokes ancient torcs worn by Celtic warriors and Mediterranean nobility. 

Founded in 1970, Jean Mahie is a partnership between Jacline Mazard and her father-in-law, Jean Mazard, known for its bold aesthetic and non-traditional jewelry-making techniques. Their work is coveted for its individualistic style. Every one of their jewelry pieces is skillfully handmade, with no two designs being the same, making them all the more desirable.
