A beautiful vintage 925 sterling silver necklace set with a series of attractive blue-green oval cabochon gemstones in a delicate festoon / drop design.
The necklace has a lovely fluid arrangement, with individually set stones linked by curved silver sections and small articulated drops. The blue-green stones catch the light beautifully and vary slightly in tone, giving the piece a very natural and elegant appearance.
The gemstones are unidentified. On a Presidium tester they register around the middle range, which could be consistent with materials such as tourmaline, fluorite or another blue-green gemstone, but no definitive identification has been made and the stones are therefore sold as unidentified natural / gemstone material.
The necklace is stamped 925 sterling silver and measures approximately 16 inches in length.
The stones have an appealing translucent quality and range from aqua-blue to slightly greener tones depending on the light.
Presented in good vintage condition with expected light signs of age and use.
There is general surface wear and light tarnishing to the silver, together with minor scratches and natural marks to the gemstones.
The stones appear secure in their settings and the articulated sections move freely.
The gemstones have not been professionally gemologically tested, so no specific stone type is guaranteed.
No polishing or restoration has been attempted.
Sold as seen.
Please study all photographs carefully as they form an important part of the description and condition report.
