Erika Hult de Corral Ric Mexican silver modernist Necklace
Made up of heavily “pitted” and oxidized beads, tubular links and a central medallion with asymmetrical dangles this Erika Hult de Corral Mexican silver necklace is an ode to modernism peppered with a touch of brutalism. Ric (as de Corral signs her pieces) has created a few versions of this particular design that I like to refer to as “moonscapes” and they are all a pleasure to wear and to behold. One of the few talented female contributors to Mexico’s 20th c. Silver Renaissance that we know of, de Corral is an inspired modernist and her jewelry is becoming increasingly sought after…
Size / Weight: 24 5/8” long (wearable); central station is 13/16” wide and adds a 2 3/8” drop to the necklace; width at chain 3/8” (the diameter of the beads); 48.0 grams
Hallmarks / Date: maker’s signature “Ric” in script an Eagle 3 assay mark; 1960s-70s
Condition: excellent vintage with great patina, generously long and just a pleasure to wear, with no damage and no repairs noted
