The Exquisite Sinner Choker

24k Gold Plated

Inspired by 20's and 30's Star Garb headdresses and my love of a good collar, but more importantly, an ode to Helena D’Algy - The exquisite sinner.

Helena was a prominent silent movie actress and Folies performer.  An image of her in a most delicious sequin dress - made up of large diamond shaped panels - was buried in amongst various folies costumes of the mid 20’s and although I have since found out that it was in fact a costume for the 1926 silent movie “The Exquisite Sinner”, I feel it captures much of the same mood and piqued my curiosity in much the same way as those delicious Parisian Folies costume designs. 

Measurements: The choker is approximately 28cm long with a 20cm adjustable chain to fit all sizes. 

Materials:  24k gold plated brass.
