18kt Gold & Sterling Silver PSTM Myanmar Fish and Mermaid Necklace on Cord
£6,145.00Stone: Silver
A beautifully made silver articulated fish in the lake Inle style from Shan state in Myanmar.This lovely fish has moonstone eyes and is accompanied by a small gold mermaid. I imagine a story of a fish and his friendship with the delightful mermaid, swimming in the depths of the lake and watching the fisherman in their narrow boats at dawn throwing their nets into the water.
