Vintage Pearl & Rhinestone Necklace-Gorgeous!
Item #12194

Here is a vintage necklace with an elegantly understated crystal rhinestone and pearl design. Features small Chaton cut crystal rhinestones accented with creamy simulated pearls. Unmarked but unusually well made and constructed; most likely a designer necklace (many times only one piece from a set might have been marked with company name). Necklace measures 17" with J clasp closure; can be worn at wearer's preference. We have necklace extenders available if desired. This necklace is in unusually good condition, with little to no wear noted; it must have been carefully stored away for many years. A friendly reminder this vintage necklace has been previously owned and worn.
