Lot 75:
Hattie Carnegie Gold tone Tiger Head Lariat 1940s
Description
Signed with green rhinestone eyes, coluorless rhinestones and enamel work. This "roaring tiger" necklace-cum-belt by Hattie Carnegie seems worthy of the creature described in William Blake’s famous poem. Majestic and ferocious, it commands attention and awe — and may strike fear — like Blake’s tiger. The tiger is the anchor and focal point of a thick long chain, with a tassel at the other end. The chain could be doubled around the neck, for a fantastic tasseled "Y" necklace. Or it could also be wrapped around the waist as a lariat belt.
