Charming vintage cultured pearl pendant necklace, likely dating to approximately the 1950s to early 1960s.
The necklace features a delicate openwork/filigree-style teardrop pendant accented with a single cultured pearl. It is presented in its vintage jewelry box with the original foil label reading:
“12 KT. G.F. CHAIN / CULTURED PEARL”
The label specifically identifies the chain as 12K gold filled and the pearl as cultured. The metal content of the pendant itself is not marked and has not been independently tested, so no claim is being made that the pendant is 12K gold filled or solid gold.
No maker’s mark or manufacturer’s signature was found.
A lovely example of mid-century vintage jewelry with an attractive presentation that would make a nice addition to a vintage jewelry collection.
