French 18K Solid Gold Drapery Necklace with Red Spinel, Antique Belle Epoque Choker Necklace c. 1900

This buttery old gold filigree chain is a classic, solid staple for any antique jewelry collection. It can be dressed up or down or mixed and matched with other chains. As the price of gold rises it can also make a great investment piece. Featuring navettes with a twisted interior, and punctuated by luminous brilliant cut red spinel, it is a one of a kind beauty. There is something romantic about imagining a tradesman over his work bench taking great pride in his creations. They are pieces of art from a time gone before that have been passed down through generations. The chain has been hallmarked with a rhino head and two eagle heads for a minimum 18k gold guarantee. The royal material, unique links, and rich history will be sure to secure a treasured place in your collection.

CONDITION NOTES:
The spring ring is in excellent condition with very good tension and alignment and there is light use to the gold but no missing filigree or thin edges. The chain is worn close to the necklace and is choker length. It is an eye-catching addition which will add sophistication to any outfit.
