Rare Authentic Vintage Natural lapis lazuli 14k gold necklace! the color is beautiful - rich saturated blue ink color!! please see photos for a description. the necklace in very good original condition! only cord is stretched from age, but the beads and the clasp are in very very good condition! I could have it restrung but did not want to ruin original vintage condition! these lapis beads not the ones you can buy today for a couple of $$ (enhanced/dyed) - these are original old but in very good condition- still shiny. and the color is the best! So this is the reason I did not have it restrung. I try always list items in their original condition so the buyer can see that he is buying authentic vintage item! The buyer can decide to have it restrung in future ( usually cost under 100$ in any professional jeweler shop). the clasp is big and works well and has a security insertion part - so if it ever gets open while wearing, it will never fall down - it has a special hook- see last photo. weight is approx 50g, it is long - the length approx 25.5" (over 12? doubled). the yellow golden beads are substantial approx 3.9mm and solid yellow gold as well as the clasp. please see size of the lapis beads next to a ruler - each approx 8.6mm! please see photos as part of description and how it looks when worn, next to a red coral necklace (the coral necklace is not included in this sale - listed separate and can be purchased separate, just for a comparison and to show how it can be worn / how it looks with other types of necklaces together) thank you and please look at my other items! fast free USPS USA priority shipping ! fast international shipping ! smoke free environment!
