Gothic Necklace, Inspired by Bram Stoker’s ‘Dracula’ – Reworked Victorian Centrepiece

This dramatic Gothic necklace is a carefully crafted hommage to Victorian supernatural sensibilities, and more specifically, a celebration of the astounding Victorian novel ‘Dracula’ which today continues to thrill & entice!  This piece recently featured in a companion exhibition to the Lichfield Literary Festival at Emporium Art Gallery – works inspired by great literature.  I am now very excited to offer this Gothic necklace for sale after such positive feedback from the general public.

It has a vintage Mourning brooch (probably Victorian) re-crafted as a large central pendant.  This shield shaped focal point is made from a gold tone metal and is elaborately moulded with scrolling curves and raised black centre.  The whole is set with black paste (glass faceted) stones (three missing but I do not feel this detracts from the overall design).  Falling from the bottom of the pendant is a double bead droplet – blood red glass and a single large vintage black round facet.  The pendant is suspended on a heavy necklace of large vintage black facets and four further blood red glass beads (these are modern).  These are all interspersed with small gold plated spacer beads.  It has a new gold plated and nickel free lobster clasp, & is fitted with an extension chain so you can adjust the length to suit your tastes.
