SOLD High drama with a touch of sass would best describe this old gold- tone necklace. The metal actually looks like brass to me; however it has darkened pleasantly from age to a nice warm hue much like that of Joseff of Hollywood or better yet, Miriam Haskell gold- tone metal.  The chain has large loops and it closes with an old spring- ring clasp (aka bolt ring, first used around the 1840s) that dates to prior to the 1900s (when the spring ring first appeared). Miriam Haskell also used these closures in her early works. It is the type without the thumb lever. The detailed leaves are attached to two chains, one shorter than the other. I strongly believe that this necklace is an old (1928- WWII) unsigned Haskell.   Condition:  Excellent vintage. Some of the leaves have darkened in spots from age as have the chains. Note: I tried to count the spaces between leaves to make sure they were all present, but there are too many, I lost count each time. They also overlap. If any are missing it is not obvious. Measurements:  20" long.
