Early Unsigned Haskell Necklace Vintage 1930s
Absolutely stunning early vintage unsigned Miriam Haskell necklace with Turquoise glass beads accent. The necklace is unsigned and I am sure it is authentic. The components are correct, the color of the metal, the construction and the overall design are all consisten with her work. The tassels are created by adding chain with glass and brass beads at the end. The bottom bead covers a thin wire which is doubled and connects to the thicker wire inside the round metal beads. There is no use of headpins. The stamping of the Iris is also consistent, and it is dimensional. The chain and clasp are right and correct for the 1930s period. The plating color is right.

If you have Kathy Gordon and Sheila Pamfiloff's book "Miriam Haskell Jewelry" please look at page 123 for the tassel tip construction which appears on the dress clip for the set. Please look at page 130 for a similar necklace of the same period which uses the same clasp. Please see page 137 for another similar style using the same construction, chain and clasp. If you do not have the book please search online for the photo archives, "Unsigned Haskell Necklaces", photos 66, 89 and 90.

Necklace is in good very wearable condition and looks gorgeous on, drapes like a dream with perfect balance and symmetry. The tassel chains sometimes get caught in between the flower petals, just pull gently and they fall back in place. It happens when the necklace is bunched up. There is, however, some loss of plating with darker small areas and some verdigris. Not major, but some here and there caused by regular wear and age, this necklace is almost 80 years old. One of the tassels is missing the last portion (the round gold bead with the small turquoise glass bead), not noticeable when worn. Any questions, please ask. If you would like different photos or angles will be glad to provide them too.

Overall measurements are 16 1/2" long, each tassel is about 3" in length. Exquisite and scarce piece of highly collectible costume jewelry by one of the best designers in history. Because it is not in perfect condition
