Mixed Metal and Multi-Material Costume Jewelry Collection Featuring Vintage Necklaces, Brooches, and Wristwatch
Description
This extensive collection of costume jewelry and accessories comprises a diverse variety of necklaces, bracelets, pendants, and a wristwatch. The items are crafted from yellow and silver-tone base metals and incorporate a broad assortment of materials including what appears to be carnelian-style polished stones, faux turquoise, mother-of-pearl, and faceted glass beads. Notable pieces within the lot include a gold-tone round-case wristwatch on a brown leather-style strap, a shell-carved cameo pendant, a large blue cabochon pendant, and several floral-motif rhinestone brooches. The construction of the pieces varies from multi-strand beadwork and woven designs to metal link settings. The collection reflects various styles, including mid-century vintage and Egyptian Revival influences. No hallmarks or maker’s marks are visible on the base metal components. Based on the visible measuring tape, the tray dimensions are approximately 14 inches by 10 inches.
Condition report:
The collection is in mixed, used condition consistent with a bulk estate lot. Visible signs of wear include surface scratches on metal finishes and stones, minor tangling of beaded strands, and general dust accumulation. The wristwatch is untested for movement and functionality. Clasps and closures appear generally functional but have not been individually inspected for security. Some rhinestones or small decorative elements may be missing from the more intricate pieces.
