This is a fabulous piece of vintage costume jewelry in true art deco modern style. This lovely necklace has 12 square cut crystals in a stepped design with just one circular cut crystal drop to the bottom. All the lead glass pieces are of the highest quality and remain bright and sparkly without the need for foil backing to the stones. Each gem is surrounded by an open mount with claws holding the stones in place to the front. This vintage necklace has a fine silvertone chain and fastens with a bolt ring type clasp. It is in excellent condition and is approximately 16 inches in length with the central crystal pendant drop being around one and a quarter inches.
