Rare sterling silver untitled necklace by Art Smith. The individual links are flat, curved, and bent into a subtle ‘S’ shape with holes at each end. They are put together to create a helix in the main part of the necklace. The necklace is elongated on each side by a single piece of metal bent to continue the helix pattern. One end of the necklace is closed, creating a loop. The other end has a link curved into a hook. The necklace is stamped with Art Smith’s hallmark.
