There is something delightfully storybook about this hand made vintage silver collar; a winding lane bordered by trees, a quiet gate standing slightly ajar, as if inviting you further in. Each sculpted tree rises in softly rounded forms, their canopies layered and dimensional, leading toward a stylized gate that anchors the design at the front. It feels whimsical yet architectural, very much of the 1970s fascination with narrative jewelry, pieces that weren’t merely decorative, but expressive. Worn at the collarbone, it reads like a tiny silver landscape encircling the neck.

Fully hallmarked for London 1976, this necklace bears the leopard’s head town mark, the lion passant for sterling silver, the date letter “B” for 1976, and the maker’s mark “JMG.” It measures approximately 15.5 inches in length and weighs 62.5 grams. The links measure about 15.5 millimeters by 3.3 mm. The construction is solid and beautifully articulated, allowing the collar to sit comfortably and fluidly when worn.

What makes this piece so compelling is its originality. It has charm without being sentimental, structure without stiffness. It pairs beautifully with simple black, crisp white, or layered with longer silver chains for a more eclectic look. A wonderful example of British studio-style silver from the mid-1970s, this is the sort of necklace that becomes a signature, instantly recognizable, quietly confident, and impossible to mistake for anything modern and mass-produced.
