AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This costume necklace stands out with its bold composition and strong vintage style. The chain features large, shiny black links, giving the piece a contemporary and graphic look. Each link is irregularly shaped, creating a dynamic and original visual effect.

The central pendant immediately catches the eye: it is composed of a large black pearl with a smooth, shiny surface, followed by a brown pearl with a marbled appearance. These two elements are connected by a fluted bail, adding a touch of contrast and sophistication to the whole.

The lower part of the pendant is adorned with a long cascade of black chains, gathered into a tassel. This element adds movement and volume to the necklace, while reinforcing the retro-chic aspect of this piece of jewelry. The set is presented on a mustard yellow box with a velvety finish (included in the photo, not guaranteed for sale unless specified).

The visible side of the necklace shows no apparent inscription, brand, or hallmark. The general condition appears good from the photo, with no major chips or scratches visible on the front. The chains of the tassel appear complete and regular. The color palette (black, brown, dark metal effect) evokes a 70s inspiration, typical of costume jewelry from that period.

Condition

Second-hand item sold as-is, as visible in the photo. The set is visually in good apparent condition, with no major defects observable on the front. Any minor signs of wear are possible and related to the age of the jewelry.

Did you know? Tassel and large-link necklaces were very popular in the 1970s, a period during which costume jewelry focused on volume and material contrasts to complement bold outfits. This type of necklace was often worn over tunics or plain dresses to highlight its structured design.
