A delicate but slightly savage necklace of seven charms of textured silver. This piece is 24.5 inches long, with the charms resting in the mid-chest area. The shape is taken from medieval kite shields, which were used in the Battle of Hastings in 1066, as seen from the Bayeux Tapestry.

Thorns are 7/8" x 3/8" and the leaf is about 1 1/2" x 1/2".
