Vintage Faux Pearl Opera 30" Necklace

This is a classic vintage single-strand faux pearl necklace, measuring approximately 30 inches long. The strand is composed of uniformly sized creamy off-white imitation pearls with a soft satin sheen, finished with a gold-tone ribbed fishhook clasp. The length makes it perfect for an elegant opera-length drape, ideal for layering with other pieces or wearing on its own for a timeless, mid-century look. Pearls appear to be simulated (costume) based on their very even size and finish, and the clasp is an unmarked gold-tone metal.
