/industrial fleur-de-lis medaillon necklace/
The [the heirloom] necklace centres around a rhinestone-framed fleur-de-lis medallion suspended from a structured silver-toned snake chain.
Four elongated chain tassels extend from the pendant, creating movement and giving the piece an almost armour-like silhouette.
Rounded metal beads and crystal-set connectors soften the otherwise mechanical construction, while the mixed silver tones and worn textures give it the feeling of something archival / inherited.
