Beautiful natural Blue Chalcedony and Sterling Silver necklace made in Germany during the late Art Deco Period, circa 1920's to 1930's. Each segment is constructed of individual pieces soldered together. Each of the links is also hand made and chased or hammered by hand. Very well made.
Marked Sterling on the reverse of the link adjacent to the clasp. It is entirely made of Sterling, including the wire work, although it might have a golden tone in the images. Like each item we offer, this necklace was carefully tested.
Overall length is approximately 16" . The widest point is the Blue Chalcedony cabochon setting at 5/8".
In excellent condition, please note these are Natural stones which are not perfectly even, the last round bead near the clasp is quite pale in color. Since these were dificult to find at the time this necklace was made it is logical that every single piece would be used.
Based on the spring ring clasp without the knob, this gorgeous necklace is estimated to date from the 1930's. Certainly made before WWII or it would be marked West Germany,
