VINTAGE HUGE MULTI-FACETED RHINESTONE GOLD TONE METAL OMEGA CHAIN NECKLACE

I have had this vintage opulant gold-tone metal omega chain necklace for decades although I have never worn it although someone else probably has.

The large rhinestone is a clear rhinestone although the photos picked up reflections of what I was wearing and it looks multi-color but it is not.

Three gold-tone chains connect to a huge multi-faceted oval rhinestone enclosed in a bezel which matches the gold chains.  Because it has many facets to the rhinestone, there is a lot of sparkle and looks beautiful under evening lights.

The necklace measures 15-1/2" for the top strand and the bottom strand measures somewhat more but was too hard to measure.  The oval rhinestone measures 2-1/2" across and 1-1/2" vertically.  There is some weight to the necklace and it is not flimsy.  

The clasp slips into the other end of the necklace as shown in the photos.

The gold-tone metal is a beautiful color and has a wonderful sheen to it.  The rhinestone has some flaws in it which will not be noticed at night.  It looks to me like some glue underneath inside the rhinestone appeared because of age mostly on the upper right of the stone and a smaller amount on the upper right.  There is a flaw under the glue that I mentioned that almost looks like a crack but I think it is glue and it is not a crack on the top of the stone but something inside along with a dark pinhead spot towards the bottom.  (Click on the photos to enlarge them to see the flaws.)

I tried the necklace on in front of a mirror at night and I could not see the flaws.  However, you can see them if closely examining them during the day but one will not be wearing this necklace during the day.

It would look beautiful for a formal event such as a dance, a Christmas party, New Years Eve and a cruise.

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.
