Description: About this Piece Length: 15 1/8" Width: 1/2"Material: Brass, glassWeight: 30 gramsMark: Yes, Czech on the jump ring Era: 1930s Why You’ll Love ItA bolder, uncommon shape of glass reflecting light in a radiant way. This 1930s Czech glass necklace boasts a unique silhouette due to its demilune style of cabochon and rich purple hue of glass made to emulate amethyst. The minimal open setting thoughtfully showcases its eye-catching curves and angles, while the repeating motif creates a dynamic silhouette putting its rich shimmer center stage. Condition and Quality ● Bright patina with minimal surface wear to the setting. ● Fresh sheen, light surface wear, and a few tiny chips noticeable only on very close inspection.● Secure, original clasp. Collector NoteOn Unique Shapes. Gemstones are time consuming to cut, requiring a high degree of skill from a trained craftsperson, and glass cabochons can be equally complicated to manufacture on a large scale while keeping costs down. These constraints are only a few of the reasons you often see similar shapes of stones used in jewelry. When an unusual shape or cut is used, the manufacturer has made a decision to make something different. Look for out-of-the-ordinary shapes, like the demilune for example, for a striking look as well as a unique find. On Czech Glass. Czech or bohemian glass created from the end of the Victorian era through the mid-century was world-renowned for its unprecedented resemblance to natural gemstones. Skilled craftsman from the region engineered new methods of cutting and coloring glass to simulate the look of rubies, diamonds, emeralds, sapphires, and more. In addition, Czech glass jewelry makers were highly trained in the metalwork for the settings around the glass. The Czech region produced so many different styles (all of superb quality) that Czech glass pieces have become their own collectable category. _gsrx_vers_1678 (GS 9.8.2 (1678))
