Just before skirts became as short as the bobbed hairstyles, women of style were wearing ankle-length gowns with correspondingly long chains of fine links and pendants in the lacy Edwardian style. This necklace dates to that period, about 1915, and is made of faux lapis glass and gilt brass with a desirable antiqued finish. The circular pendant, a sizable 2 ¼" in diameter, is a pierced medallion centered by a 1" lapis glass cabochon. The filigree designs have wire-twist patterned edges. The glass has mottled shades of blue and inclusions of goldstone to mimic the pyrite found in natural lapis. The long links of the chain are interspersed every 1 1/4'" with a polished lapis glass bead and form a chain length of 36 ½". The chain is clasp-less as it could easily slip over the even the most highly piled and pinned updo of the time. The necklace is in great condition with no damage.
Stylish enough on its own, but if you favor layering, this luxurious length gives you plenty of options to pile on chokers or other pendants and long beaded strands. In the day, "more was better" so play up the panache possibilities!
This is an estate consignment item.
