This gorgeous geisha necklace or pin from our celebrated geisha jewelry collection depicts the artist with her shamisen in ancient ivory detailing and intricate sterling silver patterns.
Many conflicting opinions exist as to what a geisha truly is. Everyone agrees, however, that she is most certainly an artist, a woman in enviable command of the revered fine and aesthetic arts she practices. Geisha are wonderful dancers, flower arrangers, and tea ceremony experts. Many were and are accomplished musicians, as depicted in this geisha necklace that shows her gracefully playing the shamisen.
Our designers have used ancient mammoth ivory in this geisha pin/necklace, a fossilized material that has lain in the earth for centuries. Ancient mammoth ivory is highly prized in fine jewelry and art pieces. The wearer owns a piece of antiquity, a reminder of an amazing animal long since extinct.
This geisha necklace is fitted as a pendant and also has a pin backing so that it can be worn both ways. She is a bewitching addition to the Zealandia geisha jewelry collection with her far-seeing expression and graceful pose.
