METAL: Aged Gold Plating over Brass. 1930s Art Deco Era Lavaliere Necklace: Lavaliere (pronounced lah-val-ee-air) is a term used for brooches and necklaces which have a pendant(s) as part of the design (sometimes with a dangling stone or tassel hanging below it). It was made popular by Louise de La Vallière who was a mistress of King Louis XIV of France from 1661 to 1667. The style is usually associated with turn-of-the-20th century jewelry and remained popular into the 1930s, but these period pieces are now seeing a huge resurgence in popularity thanks to the Downton Abbey Series. In the jewelry world the term has been shortened to lavaliere, or lavalier. Either spelling is correct. Pendant Drop: Diamond Cut, Sawtooth Bezel Set Red Glass Cabochon; Ornate Openwork Millegrain Filigree Frame comprised of leaves and various flowers including 2 with Red & White Enamel work; Also has 2 Rectangular Red Glass Accent Cabs; The connected round Floret has Millegrain Openwork Heart Petals and is adorned with a genuine Seed Pearl center. The Chain is comprised of linked, Faceted Red Glass Bicones, graduated in size. Period Spring Ring Clasp. CONDITION: Remarkable Antique condition! Most of the Gold plating has worn away as is to be expected on pieces this old and, of course, there is patina. You could have it professionally cleaned, but personally, I (and many others) feel the patina gives antique jewelry great age character. 16.5 long; Drop Section (including floret): 3 L x 1.5 W; Weight: 32.9g.
