Vintage GOLDETTE Three-Strand Gold-Tone Sautoir Necklace with Faux Moonstone Pendant and Chicklets | Excellent Condition | Free Gift Box
This classic Goldette three-strand sautoir necklace features a large three-dimensional gold-tone pendant with a large faux moonstone on either side, as well as two moonstones around the circumference.
The three chains have paper-clip or Greek-key style links, with the inner chain (which holds the pendant) and the middle chain each featuring two faux moonstone chicklets, while the longest chain features three. The chains graduate from matinee length (62 cm or ~24") to slightly longer than opera length (88 cm or ~34.6").
Founded in 1955 in New York by Ben Gartner, its jewelry was manufactured in New Jersey and its designs were influenced by, and incorporated, a number of different styles including, Victorian, Oriental, Native American, Art Nouveau, and Roman.
This three-strand sautoir necklace is in excellent vintage condition, and aside from working equally well with a t-shirt and jeans or a sweater and skirt, it will act as a great conversation starter.
