The image of the mythical hero Herakles with the features of the young King Alexander is the central focus of this dramatic necklace. Set within a frame of radiant gold and brought to glowing perfection by the passionate red of the beads, it is a jewel that evokes all the romance and adventure of the Age of Alexander. This is adornment for those who do not mind being the center of attention. - (FJ.2292)
