About the Item

An exemplary Vintage Butler & Wilson Pearl Collar hailing to the glorious 1980s and a style featured in B&W's wonderful book 'Rough Diamonds'. A weighty and chunky triple chain link collar is adorned with large glass baroque pearls. A seriously wonderful piece of wearable art that signifies an era yet remains totally relevant. Just one of our individually sourced pieces chosen because it outlives a trend and outshines the ordinary. Butler and Wilson began in 1969 selling antique jewellery in Antiquarius on the King’s Rd, London. Founders Nicky Butler and Simon Wilson opened their eponymous shop in 1972. The B&W brand ultimately became one of the world’s most famous costume jewellery brands as they consistently defined bold, glamorous, and extraordinary crystal costume jewellery over 50 years. As British Vogue put it ‘The ability to change with the times and fashion throughout the years has made Butler and Wilson 'Costume royalty'. Their pieces from the 20th century without doubt exude the very best of their work and continue to wow both the collector and style hunter. Vintage Condition: Very good without damage or noteworthy wear. Materials: Gold plated metal, glass baroque pearl Signed: Butler & Wilson Fastening: Push in tab Approximate Dimensions: Internal length 40 cm, Max width 3cm Established in 2016, this is a British brand that is already making a name for itself in the jewellery world both at home and internationally.
