Early Renoir MidCentury Copper Stylized Tulip 18 Link Choker Necklace

About the Item

Without a post-1955 copyright symbol and with the brand's earliest script signature, this likely late 1940s signed Renoir shiny copper choker necklace features 18 links each stylized as a tulip flowerhead in a modernized bolder Art Nouveau style. The American jewelry company's exclusive durable "Copron" finishing on the top of the links prevents tarnishing and fingerprints. The functional tiny linear links and the reverse side of the necklace were meant to remain blackened, while a black signature is impressed on the underside of the fold-over clasp. Comparatively without the additional enamel decoration of the company's post-1952 jewelry line signed Matisse or Matisse@Renoir, this first line was introduced in 1946. Its condition is very good with only microscopic scratches seen when viewing closely. If interested in an ornate and longer Renoir necklace, please see our other listing, which is a more delicate Art Nouveau design.
