$1,200.00
Quantity available: 1

THis antique bohemian garnet necklace holds the most unusual camphor glass sterling pendant I have ever seen. THe pendant holds one piece of beveled camphor glass and has its original garnets around it ( it had to be rewired) and it hangs from its original garnet cluster necklace that has 100's of carats of genuine garnets. The pendant measures a whopping 2" long and is one of the most unique well made pendants from that time period. This was obviously and expensive piece and well thought out to have the garnets fit between the frame like this. THere is even a garnet in the top hole of the pendant. Sparkling marcasites frame the camphor glass. I believe this is one of the earliest forms of camphor jewelry I have ever seen. THe necklace has no clasp and is one continuous thick strand that measures 24" long ( with an additional 2" more for the antique pendant) and is 1/2" thick. This is a REAL treasure so don't miss out at the last minute.
