This metal necklace is circa 1950 and made by a high end costume jewelry maker of the time. The first half of the 20th century was the heyday for well made costume jewelry sold from fine department stores to Woolworth, usually made in Europe or the United States. They were usually plated many times giving it a rich gold finish. The manufacture and quality of costume jewelry deteriorated in the latter part of the century making this era the last with enduring products.
