Trifari Masterpiece.

NWS 5-1521

~ An amazing, incredible, simply stunning work of art from Trifari, loaded with faux black diamonds, glass pearls and faux clear diamonds.

~ At center stage are 3 large, faceted, oval "black diamonds" that have been hand cut and prong-set into thickly plated, rhodium metal, with smaller, faux black diamonds that run the length of the necklace

~ Clustered beneath each of these 3 large, center stones are 5 glass peals in graduated sizes, with 3 large, faux pearls centered at the bottom of each faux black diamond, and then 2 smaller glass pearls set on either side

~ And as if that weren't enough, Trifari added 3 dew drops of tiny, faceted, faux black diamonds beneath each pearl cluster; this design continues for the entire length of the necklace - no skimping of materials here!

~ Linking these incredible crystals together are "swags" of rhodium plated metal that have been pavé-set with faceted, clear faux diamonds and at the center, atop each swag, is a single, faceted, faux black diamond chaton (round) - just magnificent!

~ The necklace measures from 14" to 16" long, adjustable length due to the hook clasp and jeweled extension chain; at the center of the necklace, which is the widest part, it measures slightly over 1" wide

~ The clasp is signed "Trifari" with the copyright mark

c. 1956, in superbly perfect condition; not commonly found.
