Mother of pearl goes Art Deco style assemblage necklace vintage geometric jewelry button template funky statement deals carved

Geometrically shaped mother of pearl discs, squares, rectangles and more create an unexpected look...not your grandmothers pearl buttons! These pieces were great find at our local summertime antique market. My experience with mother of deals pearl has been with delicately carved buttons from the early 1900's. So this is a new twist for me. I love the way it turned out.

The individual stacked plates are connected with similarly toned freshwater pearls. The flat backs rest comfortably on the neck.
There are two 'true' antique buttons on this piece...in the center drop. This necklace is about 20" long.

I work with antique and vintage parts. Some may show signs of wear or age. Please look at each picture closely. I have tried to show all aspects of my work. Please contact me before purchasing if you have any questions or would like more clarity in a picture. I like to think that older items have a character that newer parts have not yet earned.
