Vintage Mid Century single strand necklace featuring warm ivory to cream glass faux pearls and an ornate silvertone filigree box clasp centered with a matching faux pearl. The pearls have a lustrous pearlized finish and are individually knotted along the strand. The dimensional clasp features openwork floral and starburst motifs characteristic of 1950s to 1970s costume jewelry.
The combination of glass faux pearls and an elaborate decorative clasp reflects the more formal side of Mid Century costume jewelry, with stylistic connections to Napier, Richelieu, Marvella, and vintage Japanese, West German, and Spanish pearl jewelry. The necklace can be worn as a classic pearl strand or styled with the decorative clasp positioned toward the front or slightly off center.

Overall good condition. Materials have been described to the best of my ability. Based on the weight, sound, and feel of the beads, I believe them to be glass, although the material has not been professionally tested. The beads are being described as glass based on these observations. less
