Robert Lee Morris Gunmetal Medium Oval Pebble Necklace

This unusual Robert Lee Morris Matte Gunmetal Medium Pebble Necklace is one of the series of iconic organic designs form the 1980’s. The gunmetal is an electroplated finish on brass, and is a luscious dark grey/blue color. This pebble shape is an elongated asymmetrical oval, and connected in a sensual overlapping technique with the pieces riveted one to another underneath. This is an understated but elegant look, and the combination of the color and the flowing shape is stunning. It falls under the Wabi Sabi category due to its unusual coloration. Gunmetal and black jewelry was very popular during the architectural, constructivist era of fashion in the 80’s.
