About this piece

Edwardian sterling silver paste necklace by the English maker Murrle Bennet, circa 1910. The intricate drop pendant is formed as an ornate bow suspending a double wreath, set throughout with near colourless paste stones imitating diamonds. The pendant is fixed to a very fine trace chain terminating in a secure bolt-ring clasp. An example of upmarket costume jewellery of the period, signed to the reverse.

Murrle Bennet operated between 1884 and 1914, producing jewellery across the Edwardian and Arts and Crafts periods. Their designs were often adapted from those first made by Liberty and Theodor Fahrner, with some examples now held in the British Museum. This piece dates to the late Edwardian period and is signed and marked for the maker.
