Rock Crystal Necklace with 14K Gold Clasp | Floral Engraving | Europe c.1930s
POA
Description
This elegant 1930s necklace is created from natural rock crystal beads, each delicately engraved with floral motifs that catch the light with quiet brilliance.
Strung in a graceful graduated form and finished with a 14K gold bolt clasp stamped J.B 1906 14K, it speaks to both refinement and craftsmanship.
The necklace measures 43cm and sits just below the collarbone.
Rock crystal, a clear, natural form of quartz, was highly prized in the interwar years for its purity, coolness, and subtle elegance.
Unlike the bold geometric styles of the 1920s, this piece reflects a softer turn in 1930s design, when floral motifs and hand-engraved detail came back into fashion.
It likely belonged to a woman with quiet, discerning taste, favouring well-made, understated pieces over flashy jewels. Whether worn to an afternoon salon, a dinner party, or layered under silk or lace, it would have added a soft shimmer and tactile luxury.
Today, it remains in excellent vintage condition - a wearable piece of pre-war European design that’s both rare and timeless.
Perfect for those who appreciate subtle beauty, fine materials, and jewellery with a story.
Available exclusively at ELTONS, Grays Antique Market, Mayfair, London.
