The Details...
This necklace is constructed from Platinon - the fastening ring is stamped 'PLATINON'. It is a long line, cable chain design, which is sometimes referred to as a guard chain. Guard chains were used to hold pocket watches and were substantial enough to be wrapped around the neck a number of times. This piece can be wrapped around the neck twice times and measures 136cm in length. The necklace is detailed with bezel set, brilliant cut crystals at intervals along its length. It fastens with a bolt ring.

The jewellery within the Gemma Redmond Vintage collection has survived to this day because it has been well cared for throughout its lifetime. It is important to continue to care for the jewellery that you buy from us to ensure its continued preservation. Here are some suggestions:
- Be sure to store your jewellery within the boxes that we provide to ensure that it is protected. This is especially important when travelling with your pieces.
- Try not to get perfume or hairspray on your items. These liquids can damage the materials that our jewellery is made from.
- Try not to drop your jewellery or catch your jewellery against hard surfaces. If this happens over time, the findings and fixings can loosen and wear.
- Try not to get your jewellery wet. Some costume jewellery manufacturers utilised water soluble glue in the making of their pieces. Getting your jewellery wet could cause rhinestones and other details to fall away over time.
- If you wish to clean your jewellery, use a soft polishing cloth or a soft brush.
This stylish necklace was made in 1979 by Givenchy.

This exceptionally rare and shimmering necklace was created in the 1930s. It was most likely made in France.
Condition Report:
Good - There is some loss of coating to some of the faux pearls. In some places, this has resulted in a darkening to the surface of the pearls. This does not detract from the rarity and wearability of the piece, especially as the darkening makes the pearls look like grey or black pearls rather than obviously flawed.
