Matching bulbous terminals representing Sol the sun and Mani the Moon. The baluster column below is enclosed by a double crescent base. Professionally refurbished with the 24karat gold surface restored. Mounted on a modern gilt Sterling silver neck chain both are intended for contemporary wear. Gift boxed with a certificate of authenticity. Excellent detail and preservation.
