Vintage Donald Stannard Red Ram Torque Collar Necklace
This vintage Donald Stannard rams head hinged choker necklace is perfect for that Aries in your life. The rigid necklace is decorated in bright red enamel and gold plated bands to simulate bamboo. The two gold plated rams heads feature prominently at the central closure. These whimsical Stannard pieces are few and far between.
The enamel is in excellent condition without any chips and the gold plating across the piece maintains its bright shine. There are a few small spots of plating wear on the rams heads but it is only noticeable upon very close inspection.
Stamped 'STANNARD' to the inside of each side of the necklace.
Donald Stannard
Donald Stannard jewellery is famous for adorning famous women. After founding his own company in 1972 Donald designed jewellery for many television and Broadway shows like Évita and Dynasty. His designs are bold and glamorous, often with an element of playfulness, a style he honed as an assistant to the great Kenneth Lane in the 1960s.
How do you rate the condition of a piece?
Excellent - No visible flaws to note but items may exhibit some signs of age related wear
Very Good - Some visible flaws which aren't considered to impair the wearability of the piece
Good - Some more notable flaws but the piece is still in collectible condition
All items are vintage and have lived a previous life, therefore signs of age related wear are to be expected. I do my best to bring attention to any faults in the description and by using the condition scale.
