The round, medallion-style pendant draws the eye with its design depicting a stylized starfish in yellow, orange, blue, and aqua tones. The enameling or resin of the cabochon gives a sense of depth and brilliance to the underwater scene. A second decorative element, round and finely chased, is also suspended from the chain, reminiscent of the floral or sun-themed ornaments of costume jewelry from decades past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe clasp is not visible in the photo, but the chain appears flexible and lightweight, suitable for everyday wear or seasonal accent, especially in summer. The workmanship on the pendant's surface reveals nuances and reflections evoking the sea, accentuating the retro aspect of the jewelry. The structure of the necklace, combined with the marine theme, suggests a fantasy style typical of beach jewelry or nautical inspiration, very popular in the 70s-80s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe chain and visible elements appear to be in good general condition, with no major signs of oxidation or missing gilding. The piece is presented on a light blue display case (not included, unless otherwise specified), which highlights the contrasts of the pendant. No markings or inscriptions are visible on the exposed side, confirming its categorization as costume jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe necklace features two visible dangling elements: a round medallion with a colorful starfish motif, and a finely textured golden disc. The ensemble offers a harmonious visual contrast between the golden chain and the vibrant colors of the main pendant. This type of vintage costume jewelry remains popular for its unique style and color combinations inspired by marine nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed jewelry, sold as is.
