Provenance: Romy Rey Collection, London. Romy Rey (1938-2020) was born in Zurich, Switzerland, studied in Paris and Geneva, and settled in London in the 1960s. She shared her life with the artist Brian Davies (1942-2014), in London and in Southern France. Romy was an avid traveler and dedicated collector of tribal art. Her paintings often portrayed images of ancient or tribal objects in imaginary settings. Weight: 104 g, 112 g and 164 g Dimensions: Length 50 cm, 36 cm and 59 cm (full length) In the 19th century, until their final exodus to Israel in the 1950s, Jewish goldsmiths made most of the jewelry in the Yemen. They were particularly renowned for the quality of their filigree work. This type of necklace, called a lazem, is one of the traditional styles made by the Jewish goldsmiths. Its main distinguishing feature was one or more pendent cylindrical amulet cases. These amulets were worn by both Jews and Muslims. In many cases, the case did not open, as the shape alone was considered sufficient to provide protection. Literature comparison: For a related lazem necklace see The Victoria & Albert Museum, accession number M.98-1909.
