An elegant and well-preserved mid-20th century vintage jewelry set consisting of a short necklace (choker) and clip-on earrings. The jewelry is made of gold-plated metal, distinguished by a textured woven mesh link and geometric accents. The necklace and clips are decorated with dark brown rectangular baguette cut crystals surrounded by smaller faceted stones. The stones resemble a smoked topaz shade - a classic tone of warm elegance, extremely popular in the 1950s. This could bea set from Coro or Napier, judging by the style and type of clasps, which are identical to the models of that period.Such a combination of weave and clips was used only by high-quality manufacturers - Coro, Napier and Trifari - so this set is a great example of mid-20th century American costume jewelry, combining engineering precision and Art Deco-inspired geometry. Unmarkedjewelry was intended for export, especially to Europe.
