Faux Pearl Collar Necklace with Rhinestone Jaguar Clasp

Costume jewelry expanded rapidly in the 1930s through the 1960s as advances in glass pearls, plated metals, and rhinestones allowed designers to create intricate, high impact pieces at a wider scale. Mid century designs often featured decorative clasps as focal points, with figural motifs like birds symbolizing elegance and movement, paired with luminous faux or cultured pearls. This vintage jaguar clasp faux pearl necklace reflects that mid century costume jewelry tradition, circa 1950s to 1960s.

Dimensions: length 15 inches
