This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

Rare sterling silver untitled necklace by Art Smith. The individual links are flat, curved, and bent into a subtle ‘S’ shape with holes at each end. They are put together to create a helix in the main part of the necklace. The necklace is elongated on each side by a single piece of metal bent to continue the helix pattern. One end of the necklace is closed, creating a loop. The other end has a link curved into a hook. The necklace is stamped with Art Smith’s hallmark.
