Size: 17.5" chain, 30 x 15mm pendant including ring
Good condition, the pendant has some scuffs on the surface from bumping around. This is a very high quality faux pearl, made of heavy glass and with a thick faux nacre coating. The colours are grey with darker grey marbling. The drop does have a few flea bites on the surface. It is probably older than the chain, about 1950s or older?
