Retro Deco Geometric Necklace Set

It is always a mystery to us when we see a great unique necklace that is left unsigned.  This is one example. What we have here  are Gold tone matted geometric segmented triangles of varied sizes in a retro Deco design with matching pierced earrings. We feel this set was made in the 1980’s.  It is a multi dimensional necklace that captures light from so many sides.  Webster’s Dictionary never described a Triangle like this unique necklace set.

Material: Gold Tone Matted Polished Metal
Number: 11 Triangles-Varied Sizes
Chain Link:6.00 Inches

Ann Klein Golden Vintage Criss Cross Necklace/Choker Set

Clive’s Unique Jewelry is always attracted to something shiny (it’s a good thing Clive doesn’t work in a Gold Mine) and this Ann Klein signed necklace set fits the bill.  The necklace consists of 15 criss crossed plump shiny gold tone hidden hinged designs with a square snap clasp bearing the signature Lion’s Head Ann Klein Hallmark.  This vintage set includes matching clip on earrings.  We are sure that this set was inspired by Paloma Picasso’s criss cross jewelry designs.  This choker necklace measures 16.0 inches in length and the matching earrings are about 1.25 inches wide.  Do you want to wear a classic?…… you have come to the right place !
