Rare beautiful Antique or Vintage necklace! made before 1920ss. it is Late Victorian Arts&Crafts period. the clasp unmarked; the clasp is really big and crafted in solid 14k or higher yellow gold with Lab created color change sapphire from Violet purple to almost Magenta ruby purple color!! please see photos. 2-3 photos in day light far from a window/shade. 4th photo - under indoor light (shown on the photo #5). 6-7th photo in the direct Sun light.

the pearls are saltwater Akoya -2 strands! the strands are not graduated.

the necklace is authentic Vintage/antique so it shows age patina (but cord is not damaged - can be restrung if desired to make it “almost as new”; and clasp works very well!) and not hallmarked as normal for jewelry from that era but tested to be solid at least 14k yellow gold and the gems were verified

please see photos near a ruler and for weight. the length approx 16”. the pearls approx 7.5mm on average (photo#10).
