Luxury fashion brand CELINE offers a new jewelry piece for the season in the form of the 'Python necklace.' It is a silver tonal design that is made to resemble a lighter case. The case is then engraved with a premium snakeskin pattern, which is referenced in the namesake.
The necklace is designed by Hedi Slimane and is constructed from brass materials and complete in a 'Vintage Silver' coating. The all-over engraving is intricate and imitates the look of a python's skin. Notably, the necklace is adjustable with three settings to drop from 80cm to 84cm and hold a lighter. It is crafted in Italy and boasts a CELINE Paris stamp around the chain for authenticity.
