Beaumarchais Figaro chain in silver with long and short oval links. The Italian goldsmiths around 1790's were inspired by the operas of Mozart that were in turn based on the plays of Beaumarchais: notably The Marriage of Figaro and the Barber of Seville. They created the Figaro link of three or four short links followed by one long link. It is now a classic chain design. From Cassandra's Classic Collection.
Necklace measures approximately 16 inches in length.
