1940s Diamante Necklace with baguette cut jewel detail

Diamanté necklaces from the glamorous 1940s era are much in demand and they don't come nicer or sparklier than this lovely vintage necklace. Eighty six individual cut crystal diamanté stones make up the necklace.  There are 80 facet cut round jewels and 3 large round and 3 large baguette cut diamanté stones in all.  Every sparkling jewel has been claw set by hand, with four claws holding each stone,  in closed setting in a rhodium plated white metal. This vintage necklace is in fabulous condition just as good as the day that it was made!  The square stones would match up very nicely to the  cut diamonds so popular in today's engagement rings and stud earrings.  This diamante necklace measures 15.5 inches in length and fastens with a bolt ring type clasp.  The photos show the necklace on my life size vintage lady model so you can see how it looks on.
