Black-and-white silver gelatin photographic print of artist Twins Seven Seven modeling a necklace by Joyce J. Scott outside the Haystack Mountain School of Crafts during the 1974 annual summer session. Twins Seven Seven, who was a graphics instructor that summer, is captured from waist up, standing in front of a wall and looking directly into the camera. The necklace by Scott hangs over his bare chest. The necklace has two arm-shaped pieces at the top, connected by a star-shaped pendant. Additional beads hands from the star-shape, including a small hand-shaped piece and a large, circular medallion before terminating in an abstract human figure pendant. There are no inscriptions on the front or back of the photograph.
