Exquisite 1960s Jules van Rouge Runway Pendant Necklace with Kenneth J. Lane Earrings | Rare, Sumptuous, and Highly Collectible
This incredibly rare Jules van Rouge 1960s runway pendant necklace is perfectly teamed with a pair of absolutely stunning Kenneth J. Lane dangle earrings.
The gold-plated pendant necklace is solid and weighty; extravagant and sumptuous. The detail and workmanship are both meticulous, reflecting an inspired level of artistry rarely seen in more contemporary fashion jewelry.
The large white and gold dangle clip-on earrings are the perfect companions to the necklace, and while slightly different in their structure and style, the design aesthetic is quite similar.
We acquired this set from a US East Coast estate, and it's likely that the matching of these pieces is not just a happy coincidence, but more the result of a collaboration between these two iconic jewelry designers.
If you're looking for a piece of jewelry that's truly unique and irreplaceable, with an amazing backstory and history, this stunning pendant necklace set is not only really special but also highly collectible.
SUMMARY: ** MAKERS: Jules van Rouge and Kenneth Lane (both pieces signed) ** PERIOD: Most likely 1960s ** MATERIALS: Gold-plated metal and white Lucite ** CONDITION: Excellent vintage condition ** INTEGRITY: No missing elements; necklace clasp in good working condition; earring clips firm and with a good snap. On the necklace, the top of the gold-capped white bead on the right-hand side is slightly duller or a shade lighter than the one on the left, although this is hardly noticeable. The gold plating on the pendant is brilliant; however, the small spring ring clasp shows plating loss commensurate with age and wear. ** PENDANT NECKLACE LENGTH: 44 cm (~17.3") ** PENDANT DIMENSIONS: 9 cm x 19 cm (~3.5" x ~7.5") ** PENDANT NECKLACE WEIGHT: 160 g ** EARRING DIMENSIONS: 7 cm x 1.7 cm (~2.75" x 0.7") ** EARRING WEIGHT: 10 g (each)
