The piece features an asymmetric shape built with a gunmetal rigid band complimented with a black and white Lucite (or PVC) band carved with Missoni's stylized name. The choker shape is rigid and articulated thanks to a hinge on the band and a hook on the side of the plastron to open and close the necklace.
About the spring 2014 collection, Vogue said:
"With the explosive crash of waves on rocks, the Missoni show today launched into a meditation on the elements—earth, air, fire, and water. So the classic Missoni chevron was reinterpreted as waves or birds, the way you drew waves or birds when you were a kid. The family name was also reconfigured in a black-and-white, semi-African pattern that, laser-cut out of PVC and applied all over the place, as an artful exercise of logomania."
Note: check the last picture for reference.
The necklace is in excellent condition, with minimal wear on the metal, but it does not significantly affect the overall appearance. The necklace will be delivered with its original branded gift box.
Measurements: the inner circumference is 19.32 in long (49 cm) - the width is 1.57 in (4 cm) - The opening is wide enough and helps put the necklace on and off easily. In short, it will mostly fit any average size neck.
