Twisted Wire Chain with Clasp

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Twisted Wire Chain with Clasp by artist. Gold-colored twisted wire chain necklace, made of small interlocking twisted metal links. The chain is curled into a loose spiral on a light gray background. The spiral shape has one end curled more tightly in the center with a small clasp attached. The other end of the chain has a small loop. The chain appears to be made of a shiny metallic material. The background appears to be a plain, light-colored surface.
