Vintage Faux Pearl Fringe Collar Necklace

Description
A row of soft pearl drops falls from this collar like moonlight along a shoreline. Made in the 1950s–1960s in the Victorian revival style, it is built from linked silver-tone panels, each one set with a round faux pearl and finished with a teardrop dangle that moves as you do. Antiqued detailing in the links gives the piece depth and a quietly heirloom feel. It sits close at the collarbone and looks just as good with an open neckline as with a simple sweater.

Materials
Silver-tone metal, faux pearls
