Arts & Crafts Sterling Moonstone Zircon Festoon Necklace

A stunning moonstone necklace from the Arts & Crafts era (ca1910s)! This incredible piece is crafted in sterling silver and comprised of stunning moonstone and blue zircon links. The necklace displays a moonstone chain, graduating slightly in size, with the largest set in the center. Each is oval in shape and prong set and alternates with small, bezel-set zircon stone spacers. The moonstones have a wonderful translucent quality with vibrant blue flashes which look stunning when paired with the deep blue color of the zircon stones. The necklace fastens at a hidden clasp which is incorporated into the design and there is a clasped safety chain for added security. This magnificent necklace drapes beautifully along the neckline when worn and is a wonderful example of Arts & Crafts era jewelry!

Measurements: The necklace measures 18″ long.  The large teardrop-shaped center moonstone measures a little less than 7/8″ at the widest, is 1″ tall, and has a depth of 1/8″.

Condition: The necklace is in overall excellent condition. Besides normal surface wear, there is no apparent damage to the sterling silver setting or to any of the zircons or moonstone cabochons, all of which are intact. The push clasp and safety chain fasten securely and are in good working condition.
