The articulated links move freely, and the patented fold-over clasp closes securely. Please review all photographs, which form part of the description. Striking vintage Napier collar necklace featuring glossy deep-red enamel over sculptural gold-tone links arranged in an elegant overlapping leaf or flame motif. The articulated links create a flexible, dimensional collar that follows the neckline beautifully. Each polished red enamel section is outlined in bright gold tone, while the reverse features a richly textured finish. Bold enough to command attention yet refined enough for evening, holiday, or tailored daytime wear, this is classic late-20th-century Napier statement jewelry at its best. The secure fold-over clasp is signed Napier PAT. 4,774,743. That patent was issued in 1988 for Napier’s jewelry-clasp mechanism, establishing the necklace as no earlier than the late 1980s. The patent applies specifically to the clasp rather than the necklace design.
