Vintage Ruby Red Pink Solitaire Pendant Necklace

Description
A single round of ruby red glass sits high in a six-prong crown setting, faceted to throw off flashes of deep raspberry and crimson. Solitaire pendants on fine chains were a defining look of 1970s and 1980s jewelry, simple, classic, and made to be worn every day. The small scale and V-shaped rabbit-ear bail keep it light and close at the collarbone. A warm note of color that layers easily, and a natural pick for July birthdays.
