This vintage Pennino necklace is a stunning example of mid-century costume jewelry, dating to the late 1940s–early 1950s. The piece is crafted from rhodium-plated base metal and features a sophisticated arrangement of clear rhinestones.
The centerpiece showcases a stylized bow or ribbon motif, accented with baguette-cut stones, round chatons, and a prominent marquise-cut rhinestone. The baguette stones are arranged in tiered, wing-like rows, creating a sense of movement and architectural depth. The design flows into a classic rhinestone chain, finished with a hook clasp and adjustable extender chain, which is highlighted by a decorative teardrop stone. This would be a wonderful piece to enjoy a Bridgerton themed party or event.
