****SOLD****
Gold-tone& gold-flecked aqua enameled teardrop necklace. I am not absolutely certain as to when this necklace was made - very possibly late 60s given the hook closure, necklace length, and the fact that there was a huge revival of Egyptian style jewelry then. The front section is 10 inches in length with a 5 inch chain on one end, for a total length of 15 inches. The front section is about 3/4 inch wide. When I first looked at the teardrops, I thought that all of the enameling on them was spotted with tiny chips from wear, until I realized that I was looking at splatters of gold paint to give a bit of variation in the color. Someone told me that they thought it was from the art deco era, but I can't verify this. I think this would be stunning with a strapless pale dress! (*cough* wedding *cough*)
