<p>[QUOTE="Debora, post: 4289710, member: 1476"]Sorry, thought you wanted general information on your piece. It appears that your Boucher costume jewelry necklace was inspired by the work of the fine jewelry company Buccellati. In the 1960s, they produced necklaces similar in style. (I posted an image of one.) The linear engraving on your necklace mimics one of Buccellati's signature techniques. It's called <i>rigato</i>. Of course, the workmanship on Buccellati's pieces is finer as it's done by hand, not cast.</p><p><br /></p><p>Debora</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]345187[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
