Henry Perichon Gilded Bronze Chain Necklace with Talosel Medallion
Located in Atlanta, GA
French jewelry artist Henry Perichon (also known as renowned designer Henry) designed this stunning brass and Talosel resin necklace in the 1960s. The rare extra-long necklace features a brown-beige Talosel resin ball pendant topped with topaz orange crystal faceted rhinestones. The necklace is finished with a gilded brass serpentine chain adorned with natural quartz beads and a hook-closing clasp. This piece is not signed, but the beige-brown Talosel medallion and the specific closing clasp are unmistakable signs of Henry's signature.
Dimensions: The necklace's total length is 29.13 in (74 cm). The drop is 16.57 in long (42 cm). The pendant is 1.19 in diameter (3 cm) by 1.57 in high (3.9 cm).
Note: Henry Perichon (1910 - 1970), whose artist name is Henry, is one of the most inventive jewelry designers of the period. His studio was in Lyon, where he worked on bronze, silver, white metal, or Talosel resin mediums. His style is difficult to define, reflecting a diverse range of influences, including Ancient, Medieval, Renaissance, Baroque, and Art Deco. Many famous actresses from the 1950s and 1960s, such as Claudette Colbert, Suzanne Flon, Michele Morgan...

Antique HandPressed Glass European GoldFiligreeCapped Beaded Heavy Necklace
Located in Chicago, IL
This antique rare hand-pressed-glass necklace features semi-translucent grape-green large beads that are capped with gilt-brass filigree. Based on the combination of bead seams, spring-ring clasp, and metal findings on the unmarked faux Chinese-jade necklace, it dates to the late Victorian period most likely from Western Europe.
Around WWI, hand presses, which stamped molten glass into a mold to create a bead with a hole and a seam, were often used to produce costume jewelry as a cottage industry in Germany and the Czech region. This was while there was a lack of factory machine presses and finishing tumblers that used sand to polish out the seam lines.
Another reason that the cloudy green beads can be identified as atypically hand-pressed is that they are more opaque and therefore harder and less prone to breaking during formation than fully-translucent glass, which was better suited for automated-machine pressing. Also the green beads are an unusual swirled color including white, which suggests that their production was more limited than machine-pressing would enable.
Without the bead-seams, this necklace could be mistaken for one by Coco Chanel. Her 1920s couture...
