Karl Lagerfeld for Fendi Sea Shell Motif Multi-Strand Runway Necklace

A rare and extraordinary statement piece designed by Karl Lagerfeld for Fendi, this multi-strand runway necklace is an iconic example of 1970s glamour and craftsmanship. Composed of rich brown resin beads cascading in layered strands, the design is adorned with a series of cast resin sea shells, each delicately encrusted with clear rhinestones that shimmer with light. The sculptural shell forms and organic arrangement recall the luxurious seaside motifs that became a Lagerfeld signature during his tenure at Fendi.

Strikingly dimensional and artful, this necklace embodies the playful sophistication of Fendi’s 1976 runway collections—balancing natural inspiration with high fashion precision. A true collector’s treasure and a wearable work of art.
