This is an amazing c. 1940s-1950s Victorian style choker or collar necklace, very akin to many Miriam Haskell pieces in style and integrity. The piece consists of two channels of gold-tone chains, held together by a middle row of beautiful pear-shaped black beads with clear rondelle rhinestones and brass fittings. The colors of this piece make it perfect for seasonal transition, as they can be played up or down, paired formally or for every day wear. This necklace has the quirkiness and statement that we love with Miriam Haskell and pieces inspired by her designs, and it also is accessible for anyone's daily jewelry collection.
This necklace is in great vintage condition with age-appropriate patina. It measures 14 1/2 inches long with an extra 2 inches of available extension.
