Lovely 1920s/30s Twisted Emerald/Ruby/Pearl Gemstone Necklace, Likely of India
Presented is a stunning vintage necklace made with strands of genuine emeralds, rubies, and pearls, most likely made in India.
It dates from circa the 1920s to the 1930s.
This piece features a richly woven twisted strand of pebble-like genuine green emeralds, red rubies, and real pearls. The rubies especially are a great color though heavily included.
The way the stones are woven is highly indicative of Indian origin.
These gems are strung together with string and also have a braided green, gold, and white piece which rests against the back of the neck. There is a section of gold-colored round beads adorning each side of the necklace.
The necklace does not have a clasp, but is knotted in the back and is worn by slipping it over your head.
There are no problems with this piece. It is in very nice condition.
What a rich necklace full of luscious gemstones!
Length: 27 inches.
