We've never attended a masquerade ball, but owning this necklace would probably be just as much fun.

The patina on the antiqued chain and dainty pendant are both a beautiful, faded goldtone. And the charm makes us think of Carnival along the Venetian canals or swank 1960s "bal masques."

Like everything else Etsy seller SimplyChacha sells, this necklace is romantic without being too girly. Because while we may not have anything to hide, it's always fun to be a little mysterious.
