Fresh looking, soft wear is noticeable only on close inspection. Silver setting has a bright patina with minor surface wear, no dents. Original glass sparkles with crisp faceting and no chips or surface wear. Clasp is secure and original. Made by hand or in small groups of similar styles, vintage jewelry is individualistic with its own special story. Vivid blue color of crystals intensifies their sparkle. Crystals have unique cushion cut shape and bezel set for sleek look that maximizes light and shimmer through stones. Made to sit right at nape of neck, each link pivots and adjusts to neckline for gently tactile feel when worn. Color plays a key role in jewelry design and in turn its collectability. Whether natural stones or glass, what exact hue of blue was used, or the combination of colors can tell you what time period a piece was made.

Certain shades can be more common during a particular decade, making that piece of jewelry a classic example of the period - or - conversely a vibrant and unique shade might make it quite rare. Gemstones are time consuming to cut, requiring a high degree of skill from a trained craftsman, and glass cabochons can be equally complicated to manufacture on a large scale while keeping costs down. These constraints are only a few of the reasons you often see similar shapes of stones used in jewelry. For example, for a striking look as well as a unique find. _gsrx_vers_1292 GS 8.3.6 (1292).
