Mid-Century Double-Strand Faux Pearl Necklace with Frosted Lucite Flower

Story

Post-WWII fashion saw a dramatic return to hyper-femininity, largely driven by Christian Dior's 'New Look' which emphasized soft shoulders and accessorized elegance.

Maker / Origin

While this piece appears unsigned, it follows the design vocabulary of major mid-century costume houses like Trifari, Coro, or Lisner.

Condition & Value

The pearls appear to retain a good luster without obvious 'peeling' or 'flaking' of the finish, which is the most common issue with vintage faux pearls. The frosted flower appears intact without chips to the petal edges. Any significant loss of the pearl coating would reduce the value by 50% or more.
