This pretty Art Nouveau style necklace tests as sterling though we can find no mark on it. Both the pendant section and the chain test as sterling. The chain has no clasp; the necklace is long and goes over the neck. The pendant is lovely, extremely fine and well detailed. There are many raised flowers and leaves, and at the top is a head which we are interpreting as a fairy in a garden. There are green peking glass beads on both the pendant and the chain. The ones on the pendant look like they are the flower on calla lilies, and there are also trumpet flowers that are raised as well. There is dimensionality to the pendant giving it life; it is not a flat impressed design. The pendant section measures 2 1/8" by 2", and the chain has a drop of 12" to the pendant section, 12" on each side of the chain. Adding the length of the pendant, there is a total drop of 14". The necklace is just the way it came out of an estate here in Maine and weighs 23.6 grams on our jewelry scale. If you love Art Nouveau designs and flowers, this is a pretty necklace to add to your vintage jewelry collection.
