In the 1920’s and 1930’s exquisite Ebony busts with delicate 18kt collars were sold to visitors in Italy, primarily for use as a charm on their bracelets. This popular use caused extensive damage to many original pieces, so few managed to survive throughout the years. The finest examples of these pieces were sought out by noted artists such as Nardi and other master jewelry designers who turned their remarkable talents to adoring these treasures with lavish jewels in turbans and breastplates. Terry shared in Nardi’s passion in these rare artifacts and created her own exclusive design line of these precious pieces.
