Vintage Long Purple Crystal Bezel Chain Necklace, Gold Tone Channel Set Faceted Stones

A long chain of faceted purple stones, each held in a smooth gold-tone bezel and linked by fine open rings. The color sits somewhere between amethyst and dusk, deepening as the light moves across the cut faces. Channel-set chains like this were a signature of the 1970s, with a finish that feels close to fine jewelry. Wear it long, doubled, or layered with pendants for a quiet line of violet.
