This stunning vintage necklace showcases the intricate filigree metalwork and warm amber tones commonly associated with mid-century West German craftsmanship. Although unsigned, the detailed open-back setting, layered metal scrollwork, and richly faceted glass stone strongly reflect the design language of West Germany’s post-war jewelry houses.
The pendant features a large oval amber-colored glass stone framed by ornate brass-tone filigree, accented with tiny prong-set rhinestones and elongated baguette crystals that add texture and sparkle. The matching chain, a classic double-link style, pairs beautifully with the pendant and completes the piece’s old-world charm.
A striking statement necklace perfect for collectors, vintage lovers, and anyone who appreciates jewelry with history and artistry.
