“Platinon is a rare metal alloy invented to imitate platinum. Jeweller John Wall of Birmingham UK produced and featured jewellery made of platinon at the British Industries Fair in 1922 and 1929, marketing it as "The Reputable Platinum Imitation - Finest Finish - Untarnishable." It was used for a brief period of time to produce high quality pieces of costume jewellery which are now increasingly difficult to find. The metal most closely resembles the colour of sterling silver with a natural patina or a soft gunmetal colour, however, it does not tarnish.”


The necklace measures 57 inches, with the crystals 4mm diameter. The crystals are in excellent condition, and really sparkly and the Platinon metal work is in fine condition also
