Miriam Haskell Shell & Glass Bead Necklace, 1950’s

About the Item

Dramatic in its simplicity, this mid century Miriam Haskell necklace combines a spotted cone shell pendant with capsule shaped white glass beads spaced with smaller dark brown (almost black) beads. The organic design makes a statement and pairs well with minimalist or maximalist looks. Outfitted with filigree gold tone slide clasp and hallmarked ‘Miriam Haskell’. CONDITION Very good condition with darkened patina to the gold tone closure. The shell has a drilled hole as shown in photograph 11 … it appears to be part of the manufacture. MEASUREMENTS The necklace is intended to sit close to the neck and measures 18.25" from end to end providing for an approximate 7.5" drop. The shell measures 3.5" long x 1.75" wide x 1.75" deep. The white beads are .75" wide.
