The eye-catching and large size of the richly colored glass with its deep amethyst-purple hue, make this necklace a romantic, and sophisticated Art Deco treasure. Its intricate filigree setting thoughtfully complements the range of styles and shapes of glass, while a tapered drop sways freely when worn, for a timeless antique piece that will never go out of style. Condition and Quality ● Bright patina with minimal surface wear to the setting. No misshapen spots. ● Fresh sheen, crisp faceting, and no chipping on the glass.● Secure, original clasp. Collector NoteOn Glass Made to Emulate Gemstones. Glass has long been used by jewelers to simulate natural gemstones. For instance, during the Georgian era, black dot paste is a term that refers to a style of glass that was made to simulate the sparkle of natural diamonds. But in the 1940s, the use of glass to simulate gemstones ramped up more than ever before. World War II constrained both fine materials and pocketbooks, so more and more designers (including high-end designers) focused on glass to re-create the distinctive properties of different gems. High-end designers thus began making costume glass jewelry - but with the same attention to detail, high craftsmanship, and design skill that was applied to fine jewelry. _gsrx_vers_1608 (GS 9.5 (1608))
