Two thin, curved, flat pieces of metal connect to form a circular choker-style necklace. The pieces connect at the back, at a hinge, and at the front. The piece on the right is silver and extends in a swooping curve. The bottom third of the curve smoothly widens so it is no longer the same curve as the rest of the circular necklace. The metal itself gets a bit wider at the tip as well and ends at an angle. The piece on the left is brass and maintains a uniform circular shape.The two connect at the front of the necklace just left of center.
