Vintage Weiss Festoon Topaz Rhinestone Necklace, Book Piece, Art Glass & Rhinestones

*Description: This is a beautiful Weiss festoon choker necklace in topaz rhinestones and art glass rectangular cabochons which are beige in color, from the 1950s. This gorgeous necklace is featured in Costume Jewelry 101 by Julia C Carroll on page 84 in white. Her description, "Marvelous Weiss 15" festoon necklace... rows of opaque moonstones are beautifully famed by shiny rhinestones. The necklace is signed "Weiss" on an oval cartouche." The beautiful draping festoon style necklace would look beautiful for any special occasion. The style is very unique and very designer quality. The back is gold plated and has a WEISS raised cartouche near the center of the back. Note that the necklace is 15 inches, however there is a large rhinestone on the end, which is a part of the clasp, so the wearable length is about 14 1/2 Inches; I would consider this a size small or you could add your own extender to add length. This would be a great addition to your vintage jewelry collection or make a great vintage gift!
