Vintage Marquise Solitaire Pendant Necklace

Description
A 1980s–1990s solitaire necklace with a single clear marquise-cut stone, prong-set and suspended from a fine serpentine chain. The stone's pointed oval shape catches light from end to end, like a small seed of starlight. The S-link chain lies flat and has a soft shimmer of its own. A simple, everyday piece that layers easily.

Materials
Gold-tone base metal, clear faceted stone
