Totally outlandish! Long double sautoir necklace with an enormous flower. Made of genuine cultured pearls, onyx and mother of pearls. Wires in silver. Made late 20th century. Measurements: total length is approximately 37.5inches (95cm), the onyx slightly longer than the pearls so that they hang correctly. The flower is approximately 3 3/4 inches (10cm) wide. Pearls are about 8mm in diameter.

This necklace makes a very strong statement. Black and white: the ultimate fashion colors and contrasts. Rich onyx, faceted beads in a long chain and alongside, cultured pearls. In addition, there is a huge flower made of mother of pearl petals joined together at the back by silver wire. The center is pretty carved and engraved mother of pearl, set with 5 slightly rice-krispy-ish smaller pearls. Each of the latter with a silver pin showing through it. The necklace can be worn as is, or, you could have your jeweller remove the flower and turn it into a brooch/pendant and wear the pearls and/or onyx in a more conventional fashion.

Marks: none found.

Condition: minor wear. Please see enlarged pictures for details.
