Measurements
16 inches in wearable length. The necklace can be twisted a little more to make it a tighter fitting 15 inches.
Clasp is 1.5 inches in height and both sides together extend over 3 inches.
Condition
Very good vintage condition. There is a slight discoloration to some of the stones in the pavé centers. They appear far more yellow in the photos than in reality. There is slight wear to the plating on the inside of the clasp. Otherwise magnificent!
Grade: Very Good
