Vintage 1960s Cameo Tassel Necklace Antique Gold Finish – From an old jeweler estate this is a lovely 1960s, tassel necklace in very heavy gold plating with an antique finish. This jeweler was a distributor for Florenza, Goldette, Hollycraft, VanDell, Beau and many other period costume houses of the 1960s and all indicators are that this is unmarked Florenza. Most collectors of this type of antique finished gold jewelry know that oftentimes the pieces are either unmarked or the original marking in buried under that heavy gold plated finish. The necklace is gorgeous and showy. It was only ever used for a store display and has some minor age wear around the edge of the frame. Other than this it is excellent. The cameo is 1960s Wedgewood style blue and white resin set in a gold frame that is hand riveted into the back the old way. The cameo is highly detailed with intricate features. It is surrounded by cream white faux pearls. The entire pearl wrapped cameo is set onto deep royal blue plush velvet which sits atop the antique gold pendant dangle which has a thick fancy twisted gold border and matching antique gold finish. Hanging from the pendant is a long multiple chain tassel and finishing off the necklace is a very fancy chain with deep cutwork on every link front and back. Size of entire necklace is 28.25″. Size of pendant tassel dangle is 4.25″. Width across the pendant is 1.5″. This is a gorgeous example of vintage period Florenza jewelry for your collection. Very, very pretty and showy!!
