Vintage 14K Rose Yellow Gold Purple Corundum Necklace 18" 25.6g Israel
Description
A truly distinctive vintage 14K two-tone rose and yellow gold statement necklace, featuring beautiful geometric gold work and a dramatic oversized purple gemstone centerpiece.
The necklace is crafted with articulated, textured sections of rose and yellow gold, creating a striking geometric design with wonderful vintage character. The ornate center is accented by three articulated dangling drops, giving the necklace movement and an elegant statement look when worn.
At the center is a substantial approximately 18mm round faceted purple corundum.
The decorative articulated section transitions into a classic 14K box chain and is completed with a spring-ring clasp.
The necklace is stamped 14K and bears additional hallmark/assay markings. The marks appear consistent with an Israeli origin, although the exact manufacturer has not been identified.
Stylistically, the necklace has a strong Mid-Century Modern / Retro Modernist character, with its geometric articulated construction, mixed rose and yellow gold, oversized colored gemstone and dramatic drop elements. I would conservatively describe it as mid-20th-century vintage style rather than assigning an exact decade without a confirmed maker.
