VINTAGE LAPIS LAZULI 14K GOLD FANCY CLASP 30 INCH NECKLACE - JUST BEAUTIFUL

This lovely necklace will go with so many outfits and is a beautiful accent piece to one's wardrobe!

The necklace is royal blue with some gold flecks and white in it.  I could not capture the perfect shade.  Due to the variations in computer monitors in coloring, sometimes there will a difference in the actual color but I try to get as close the real shade as possible.  

The necklace is 30-1/2" including the clasp with a 14K gold fancy intricate fish hook clasp. Over the decades when I have seen 14K gold clasps, the spacers are always 14K gold as well.  Since I do not know how spacers would be marked, I am assuming these are gold as well because of the clasp.  The hook part of the necklace is stamped with the 14K mark.

The necklace is long enough that it can be doubled if the clasp is undone when doing that and wrapping around one's neck first.  At least it could be done on my neck but that will vary depending on how big your neck is. But if  you always want to wear it doubled, be sure to measure your neck if this is important to you to make sure it will fit your neck with some room left over.  It just barely made it around my neck so that is why I am saying this in case you only want to wear it doubled.

I do not have calipers to measure the beads but I read an article that said to count the number of beads in an inch.  I did that and there are 3 beads and 3 spacers in an inch if that helps you.  Also there are 82 beads in the necklace.  I also looked at some size charts on line and held one bead next to a few on line and it looked possibly like a 6mm or 8mm but I do not know that for sure.

This would be beautiful with a white summer outfit as well as with other outfits!

Care Instructions

We examine each item carefully and note any imperfections, but unless an item is said to be new, please don't expect it to be perfect & even some new items have small imperfections. I will always state in the description if there are any imperfections & I never do repairs but leave them to others who are better able to do them than me as that is not my expertise.

Please remember that unless specified all items have been used and will show varying signs of use or wear. We always list the obvious imperfections to the best of our abilities. However, some slight imperfections that will not show or affect wearing or using the item may slip by or not be considered worth mentioning. Vintage nightgowns & peignoirs may be delicate so I do not wash them in the machine. I wash them in lukewarm water with Woolite or some other mild soap, then rinse & hang dripping wet in the shower. Since these are vintage items, a bit of extra care needs to be taken with them so they remain beautiful & I definitely would never put a vintage nightgown or a peignoir in the dryer as it would ruin it. The items are sold as we find them. We do not dry clean, launder, alter or repair vintage clothing and they should be cleaned or washed upon arrival. Please make your selection carefully & check the measurements as there is no return on clothing or other items.
